Personally a cash-out refi could help me get more quickly into all-cash BRRRs or a REI venture in Spain, however I don't know to what extent this is at the expense of rental cash flows, and what is the wiser decision long term.I've combed through posts online and looked for Excel templates to run some calcs and get a sense, but nothing really filled the void... 

Immediately started making minor improvements, due to hurricane season decided to remove one tree and trim a huge oak tree at the other location. 

Looking forward to hearing from you,Corey Flood

You can also look at Schedule E, which connects to depreciation, though it won’t show the exact cost basis.Since depreciation affects the final cost basis, you might want to ask your CPA for a summary of your properties' bases to save time in the future.They should have a system where we can give you not just the basis but also a detailed gain (and estimated taxes) calculation within a day.

They have called the police on guests (in the middle of the day, for parking over a sidewalk in the driveway, for noise when guests were playing dominoes by the pool and on and on)…one neighbor yelled obscenities at my guests (in front of children), saying, “We don’t want tourists!” 

We are starting to look at another property soon and wanted to see where else was doing well.

Thank you, and I look forward to engaging with you all in these forum posts and potentially in business. 

So long story short we have a traveling nurse staying at our rental that got some water damage when the roof was being replaced, they don't have renter's insurance (which we require in the renter's agreement they sign), water damage has been remedied and is cosmetically minimally affected and still very much in a liveable state.

It’s a niche, but a valuable one for Canadian investors looking to diversify into U.S. markets.

Hey @Devin Bost, I would highly recommend a few things to help with this. 1) Have systems and processes lined out for any emergency you can think of.2) A spreadsheet of subcontractors/ vendors that could handle the situation that arises (plumbing leak, electric out somewhere, etc.)3) Your cleaning team and handy person should be utilized for some things.4) Something like Breezeway can give you 24/7 support around your property with a dedicated phone number line.
