The tax benefits, and I am NOT a tax attorney, are going to be minimal as far as I can tell.I agree with Wesley, you would be better served learning the game first.

It is important that people understand what role they are playing in these deals.

I know someone who is rehabbing and I know someone who has been playing the 'appreciation' game.

I am sick of seeing this same situation play itself over and over.

Thanks for stopping in, and I hope you decide to stick around while you're in the real estate game.

I don't feel I know enough about the rental game or the rental market around here to make an informed decision right now.

If you have already purchased a home for youself.....you are farther ahead in the game than you know.
