I still own this duplex as it does produce positive cash flow.

Hi All,I am a recent college graduate who is looking into rental property investing as a tool to produce passive income.

If feasible, I would knock down the restaurant and produce storage units for the members in that community.

Mass solar incentives overview:https://www.solarpowerrocks.com/massachusetts/Indy solar incentives overview: https://www.solarpowerrocks.com/indiana/Mass has a great SREC program where you get paid well for every kWh produced, and you also have expensive electricity there so just by not paying a bill you'd save a lot more than other states with less expensive electricity.Indy offers a sales tax exemption and property tax exemption, and if your utility is NIPSCO there is even a .17/kWh feed in tariff, so depending on where your properties are it might make sense financially, and as you mentioned the soft value of doing something good for the environment is often a bigger driving factor for many people.

Hi all,Looking for some advice/direction- So I have 3 SFH rentals that are close to being paid off, 1 house that i live in with tons of equity and a nicely cash flowing triplex that i just bought. i also have a business that produces a very healthy amount of cash flow....

All that land , all those buildings would have pressure to produce jobs and fruition to the communities.

I found out that we could 1031 timber deeds.you want to talk about slick.land owner sells me a timber deed.. he 1031's the timber deed to an apartment complex or other income producing asset. we make the delta on the harvest costs and market price of the logs.. we replant for them.. and they get to keep the land and have a replanted forest for future generation.. take standing timber that is not creating monthly income and now have a nice cash flow asset all for just waking some tree's.. 

Hard work to create income (hard work seems to be a lost art these days) , dedication to live within your means, grow your sources of income, invest what you save into cash producing assets, grow those assets... repeat.

We found a house we like as rental property.We could make an offer using conventional financing or should we wait to use HELOC and then refinance, essentially using the BRRR method.If we waited and did the BRRR method, we could have a profit producing asset (about $170/month) without having any of our own money in the game after the refinance.If we proceed now we would have to use conventional financing which we would have to use our cash for down payment and rehab costs.

If you do the right renovations upfront, you can get the best of the "less qualified" and produce good cash flow.Have investor client who did such that.
