Typically I have heard of lease purchases being done in order to get a better price for the house, but I wasn’t sure if anyone out there was choosing to do it for the tax benefits as an investment strategy.Thanks in advance...

So if its 60% owner/occupied and 40% investor and the investor portion is full, you may not be able to purchase and worse, when you go to sell, you may only have the option of selling to an owner/occupent...and if the owner-occupant knows that there are a bunch of renters in there, they may choose to buy elsewhere.Again, just my personal opinion.

At the end of your search you should choose whatever product is a better fit for your particular situation. 

It's largely based on what you want or need as a real estate investor.FYI -- I covered this in some detail and depth in one of my earlier episodes titled, "Choosing the Right Neighborhood" (episode PREI 007).Hope that helps you out.Continued success!

Solidify your growth plan for your business and make sure the tool you choose can accommodate scalability as needed.

I learned how to choose a good market to invest in (population growth, job growth/diversity, etc).

You can directly choose several small or big real estate projects to invest in.

As the Owner, you have the right to choose however you want to do it.

My biggest piece of advice is to CHOOSE YOUR MARKET WISELY.

Other landlords choose to buy in areas where the rents are consistent and high in relation to the cost of acquisition.
