@Quan ChauYou may get the added benefit of being able to claim travel costs to see your parents as well.

You can deduct any reasonable and customary business-related expenses for your rental business, including mileage, travel, meals and a home office. 

However, I want to set myself up for success via passive income real estate streams as fast as possible so if I want to work less, want to travel more and work part time, do charity work, side businesses, etc., I will have the option to do so.

Another alternative is to try furnished corporate rentals where you rent to traveling professionals for 1-3 months.

There are some other tenant pools that you can also target (Military, Student, Traveling nurses, or other contract-based workers).

BTW- Rent is $2400 per Mo- $485 in interest, I pay $240 for all utilities, $850 per year for insurance- rented 100% to traveling nurses.Owe $195K- Would get it to $130K on an investment loanWe are selling some vacant land, will have $50k to put down on a 15 year loan- Thoughts?

I believe the better place to control the duct work is closer to the furnace, because it helps prevent the heated air from even traveling down the duct, to a closed vent. 

A single executive who travels may want a furnished unit BUT most luxury renters have all their own furniture and kitchen equipment.
