It is hard to find books or other online material that is updated enough to rely on.Regards,Erik

I am not familiar with the area in terms of neighborhoods and was hoping to get some insight into which areas are safest to live in and ideal for purchasing rental property.

Hi, all. I closed on my rental property in January 2018, but I incurred expenses to buy it at the end of 2017. Normally, it's pretty straight forward on Turbo Tax, when the expenses to purchase a rental and the income...

Thanks in advance I deal with a lot of boomer+ plex owners that do rent this way and have since the 80s.

Looking at properties online (MLS, Auction Sites, etc), physically looking at properties in consideration, putting in offers, going to closings, meeting contractors, checking progress on projects, going to RE meets, going to RE seminars, driving time to these events and locations?

This means reaching out to people online, going to local meetups, and getting to make friends with as many people as possible.

Not sure that is the ideal situation for us. 

So we came across the online tool to farm for properties.

At first, I was looking on the counties online public record but unfortunately I will have to search for individual addresses and after doing some more research I came across that is possible to get a listing through the MRIS.

Id suggest instead of molding yourself to what others want, define what your ideal client is then seek out those clients.
