That bonus room for a home office can't hurt.4.

My husband and I own a home in CA and moved to another state for work but decided to rent it out so we keep the option to go back there some day.However, our first tenants were a military family and left before their 12 month lease expired (we do not live near a military base).Recognizing the challenges covid-19 poses, we reduced the rent so it is below the cost to cover mortgage and property taxes.There is one family that seems to be interested, and quite pushy, but has made an offer that is 10% below our adjusted asked rent.They gave us a deadline to get back to them, and basically offered a “bonus” payment that offsets their low ball offer a bit but even with that we are looking at 5% discount.And they insist on the 10% discount for the second year (hence their framing of the “bonus” payment).

Then, you can just transfer over the percentages of each category (e.g., repairs, capex, vacancy, etc.) that you want to the rainy day account with a debit to the rainy day cash account and a credit to the operating cash account.

Aside from MFR, I am looking into the NNN distribution center category. 

Please feel free to reach out or refer anyone you may know of that is outstanding in any one of those categories. 

Bonus points if they are investors themselves.You touched on depreciation, and this is very important for tax purposes.

Air bnb and homeaway are proving to be terrible search engines. best case scenario, looking for a house with a private pool, quite area nad a few acres of land would be an added bonus. was hoping to find someone here who deals with short term/vacation rentals that can provide leads

Ask him the broker if he has heard of "bonus depreciation" and get back to us.
