Quote from @Isuf Aruci: i live in the NY area and would love to build a house or a mid apartment building. but the land search is very very difficult. also lets say i found the land, where would i get information and see if its buildable, also how do you calculate a land to see if its worth building or not.   

Your "buy in" funds could potentially be used for improvements to the other properties you mentioned, without triggering a taxable event.

Running numbers on a spreadsheet and in a BP calculator every day for ten properties when you have never seen one in real life or smelled mold or been to a hoarder's house or seen a structural issue is just procrastinating.

I have made lots of calculated but risky decisions based on knowing my family, wages, living expenses etc.

You plug in whenever set your timer the car starts to charge right at 10pm and with just the standard charger Tesla has takes about 4 to 5 hours to fully charge so by 2 to 3 am your good to go and as I have calculated my energy costs.

Looking forward to seeing your portfolio grow.Feel free to drop me a note if you need any help with cost segregation (how to reduce your taxable income using advanced depreciation).Chris Schmidt-Löffler

I am new to REI and still trying to understand the REI principles by reading, listening to podcasts and fiddling with RE calculators.

I am 100% real estate development in my business so these are calculations I need to make all the time.

We have quite a few resources here such as our STR Calculator, STR Newsletter, and our bookstore which has "Short-Term Rental, Long-Term Wealth" that is excellent. 

The increased depreciation deductions can offset your taxable income, including gains from the sale of the previous property.
