@Price KenneyYou want to connect with an accountant who is very familiar with taxation as it pertains to foreign investors.A couple things to consider.1) Depreciation calculated may be different if the ultimate owner is US or Foreign.2) Corporation tax rate decreases with the most recent tax reform made "blockers" more attractive.3) use of a blocker is favorable to many foreign investors as you are not required to file a US individual tax return and not required to disclose all other personal information to IRS.However, all the facts and circumstances should be addressed before preceding so please consult with a competent accountant.

Even with the rent thing out of the picture I’m still currently looking for an intelligent individual to learn from.

One thing to note when looking at the individual markets, you can make or loose money in any market.

But, it all really depends on the individual doing the analysis.I have a simpler spreadsheet I've created that I'd be happy to share with you if you'd like - just PM me your email and I'll send it over.

Just finished reading Rich Dad Poor Dad and I’m hooked.

Those comps may feel like poor properties to compare to but they are valuable data points.The regression line will answer exactly what the extra 100 sq ft or bedroom is worth!

Read a lot to start off start with non- real estate books like rich dad poor dad and the richest man in Babylon so you could understand the principles.

Those are generally poor curb appeal homes. 

Perfect, I trust this guy- Job #5 is an HVAC repair from a job where I was previously burnt and the install was very poor- I have my HVAC guy go look and give me an estimate.  

In my area MFH is a poor deal.
