I've got questions around:- Using a Partnership LLC to take advantage of the 20% pass through deduction- Creating an LLC as a holding company for my rentals and using accelerated depreciation to defer taxes so I can fund more deals- Creating a SoloK and maxing out the 55k/yr contributions- Accelerated depreciation on improvements to the portion of my house used for AirBnB- How to offset more of my W2 income (currently the majority of my income)Feel free to reach out if you think it's a good fit. 

It's kind of a scorched earth tactic. 

The most common thing to look for is cracking in the concrete wall (cracks often time are just settling and are not major) bowing in the retaining walls, and sagging in the ceiling joists.

stackables are generally smaller than normal. the small ones hold up the worst to wear and tear. tenants try to over stuff them. i recommend lo end appliances for rentals so if you need to repair or replace you're not shelling out major cash

Considering a large MF development project in the Philippines.  Wondering if anyone has invested there or might have tips on investing and fundraising for overseas projects in general.  

House needed a lot of work but it was majority cosmetic.

As long as you are getting 150-200 per door on larger multifamily, you can afford to have a vacancy or a major repair and still break even for the month.

Buying something and finding out there's major roof, foundation, etc issues is not worth winning the bid!

For example, if the stairs to the attic are too steep or narrow, they'll need to be ripped out...that's major structural work...thousands and thousands of dollars.And for what?

Buy something that needs some work but nothing major in a decent C+/B+ neighborhood that is growing.
