A= High EndB=Middle MarketC= Middle to Working Classd= War ZoneSome are my property others might equate "war zone" but its really not, but 2 blocks over I wouldn't go in the area.

Indeed, when I got H&R Block advice, they said I could not take the deduction. 

Hello @Henry Melair, thank you for the reply.The property is in sort of a gentrifying area of KC (directly south of downtown – it’s kind of block by block down there, but it’s west of Troost and overall area that is gentrifying).

The ones were the tenant needs to go online were a pain.

That should be painful enough to discourage using your ira if you aren't of age.

I live about a block from some tracks and I would never, ever buy or rent a house that close again.When I bought here in 03, there were only a few trains a day and it was barely noticeable.

I have a Jack in the Box, Burger King and McDonalds within 2 blocks of my house.

One block had 9 houses in a row all foreclosed 3 year old houses.

Three years I started an adopt-a-block program in our investment neighborhood.  

Houses in that area price range broadly from 300k to 750k on the same block, so I'm thinking arv would be roughly 315k judging by similar homes.
