@Sebastian Bennett you are already a few steps ahead of most by merely recognizing the importance of vendor contracts and kudos to your insurance broker for taking the initiative to request the support documents that will attract the most favorably priced insurance quotes.

However, there are some differences in loans that I would point out and then some good methods on finding out which lenders are "investor friendly".Generally speaking there are 2 main types of loans for investors: “Conventional” and “Portfolio”Conventional - I'll define these as loans that come from Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac (if you recognize those names).

Meaning in certain situation,  if you distribute cash, your would have to recognize income.

Recognizing that the way we handle routine tasks shapes our overall approach allows for conscious adjustments.

Recognize there is a DIFFERENT caliber of folks that rent Homes as opposed to Multi-Family. 

But I am very familiar with the workings of an LLC.If you want the LLC to be recognized as a true legal entity, then you must have formal articles of incorporation and share certificates;  you're better off paying a lawyer to set this up correctly than notarizing something off the internet. 

If i purchase a property worth around $250,000, and recognize 20% depreciation ($250K X 20% = $50K) through cost segregation, bonus dep, etc, would I effectively pay zero capital gains on my stocks?

While I expect tenants to be fiscally responsible and plan for unexpected expenses, I also recognize mistakes happen too.

When I saw your picture of your home I was like hey I recognize that place.

In that instance, dual cleanouts can potentially solve the problem.But if the line did fail, it is important to recognize, it was all installed at the same time.
