Spend 5-10 hours meeting your contractors and going over the properties.The rest of your trip can be exploring the city, visiting museums, beach(if available), trying new restaurants, etcOn top of that - the trip can be a deduction.There are many ways to build wealth in real estate and these steps worked for me.

If yours isn't then we should explore other options.As far as multifamily vs single family for BRRRR, I will say that BRRRR is a strategy that is generally intended for single family homes.

Something worth exploring more for sure...

I do have to mention - tenants sometimes do not like this method because "John" that lives by himself in 500 sq/ft unit uses a TON of water while "Bob and three kids" in a 1200 sq/ft unit barely uses water at all. 

I have friends that have chosen to send their kids all the way across town from South Tulsa to attend the high school.

More importantly, it really felt good to be able to provide a nice home for a family (they have 4 kids) and was able to get them in the week before Christmas.. perfect timing!

The advantage is that accelerating the depreciation will act as a tax shield for our earnings during the course of the year, lowering our tax liability – the downside is that we need to be committed to owing the property for a long, long time (in our case the plan is to own it forever & hand it down to our kids).

My husband, 2 kids, and myself have lived in the same home for over 5 years paying $1500 rent.

This strategy typically only works for young singles and once you get married and have kids the "move every other year thing" isn't feasible.

We also have three kids living in roughly 1500 sq ft.
