Caveat: in virtually all LOC arrangements, be aware that the bank will be able to "call" the line of credit at any time. 

There are many great tax pros out there who work virtually with clients from coast to coast and work mainly with real estate investors.

To think that as soon as next year we could have 16 and 17 year old kids who have virtually no real world life experience and minimal contextual understanding of past policies, economics, national history, etc. swaying election results is only going to push even more short sighted agendas that have a good tag line but don't have the fundamental framework to actually solve the real problems.

So the Mentally Ill were just left to fend for themselves.Take away most of the "Skid Rows" and the Mental Institutions.... well... you get what we have today.I have been thinking about it for a while, but Supply and Demand is working here, except that the supply of Affordable housing in respect to "Skid Row" type areas have virtually disappeared.So you have a lot of people who need this kind of affordable housing, but not much of that kind of housing is to be found.In fact, you have an increase in demand because of the recent drug epidemic involving Oxy, Meth, Fentinol and Synthetic Marajuana.I don't lean left but more towards Center, but I am trying to become more informed.I think there is merit in studies like these that describe the issue by looking at the history of homelessness.It's almost as if we have to have apts and homes that match the population segmentation as the POPULATION changes.In other words, are we just ignoring very low income people just because they cannot afford anything but a "Skid Row" type area?

When you do your books and see that you doing all this work for virtually no gain.  

We've had tenants who refused to pay and forced our hand for eviction, but we've also had tenants with us almost from the very beginning who make virtually no peep aside from a Christmas card every year.Essentially I'm trying to learn more about whether my inexperienced gut feeling is pulling me in the wrong direction, after seeing a couple of horror stories from some tenants at properties with less, ah, TLC.

Hope this is beneficial for you. https://thevirtualinvestor.co/virtual-wholesaling-in-new-markets/

There are lots of changes  in Upstate New York like casinos, growth, & Metro-North stops several of which I believe will help push up appreciation within walking distance of some stationsHowever, I no longer reside there I now live in North Jersey, Essex County & wide surrounding areas.
