How many of you have got your tax bill for this year?

My formula is not complex... something like this:High school rating > 8"(Estimated Rent x 12) - HOA - Prop Tax - Insurance @ 0.3% - Vacancy @ 5% of rent - Debt Service @ 8%" > 0I want to be able to customize the metrics, and find properties I can purchase as an investment.If anyone is an avid user of StockRover and their custom metrics, that is exactly what I am looking for - but for real estate. 

You can summarize your transactions yearly by SchE tax category to support tax filings.Hope that helps. 

I am self employed and run a trucking company so I write off my income to pay as little tax as possible.

Definitely worth chatting with a tax pro to make sure you're set up in the best way possible.

On top of the Cash on Cash return, real estate provides major benefits in 3 other areas, namely – Tax benefits, Appreciation, Leverage.If you calculate the return on net worth, a 7% CoC deals can often turn out to be 15-20% return on net worth!

Put it on the market, take your (up to) $500k tax free gain and buy a no attachment rental if you want.

My current flow is 1) find a house that matches the configuration (X beds, Y bath)  in a certain neighborhood (Redfin or my agent)2) pull up rent data in rentometer / Zillow 3) run through my spreadsheet with expenses, taxes, insurances and etc I would love these to be automated.

For instance, one of our properties generated $34,130 USD in December and $29,021 in January, showcasing the earning potential with strategic management and investment in property enhancement.

What is your degree in and have you made more or less from it so far than you made from the house you lived in while you earned it?
