One team I looked at recently on a "ZILLOW PREMIER AGENT" profile with 300 5 star reviews, 200+ recent sales,was actually like the combined work of 20 people.

Where would you put yourself on the risk profile?

@Ricardo DiazEveryone's tax profile is unique.

I know a while back, on a separate thread, several rental business owners discussed using Social Media as a screening tool - my response was as follows:"Social media can be tricky because verification of account ownership can be a hard one to pin down; ie. if you require it as part of your application, a tenant can supply a "clean" version of their social media presence (ie. professionally created social media profile) versus an account that the applicant might actually use regularly, but you may not have any type of verifiable information to confirm that they own/operate the account.

IE same here.To get a taste of buy and hold helps, go to my profile, 1st paragraph I've linked a paper I give talks on, how to buy a bullet proof rental portfolio.Fast start has a Flipping bent, but covers A-Z.   

If I read your profile right you paid this house off and have been using it for a rental. 

The laws, strategies and tricks have changed in buying pre-foreclosures so if you need that information, it's too much info to put here, got to my profile and follow the link.

If your financing is fixed, each year of appreciation above inflation will increase the cash flow (financing is fixed, prop tax has a capped increase).Except for the house hack, what you propose is what we do for each of our RE investments (look at my profile - we have done alright using this plan).
