Great breakdown @Julio Gonzalez , really helpful to understand Cost Segregation.I want to add one reminder for all of us, Land is never depreciated, so the basis value ($641,100) of the property above NOT includes land value.

Do they wait until the renter is gone in November to do the repairs, and if so, do they pay for the loss of income while it's unable to be rented?

I've never been to Florida so any information about this area would be much appreciated.

So sorry it took so long dad but I am now officially a real estate investor. 

Again this depends on if you're working with someone in the states or if they are having someone overseas do the work.There are so many factors that come into play with pricing.

So here is my two questions. 1.

Real estate’s a marathon, not a sprint, so keep your eye on the long game.

Any advice to clearly seem minimum rental requirements for st louis so we can bring this to their attention or better inform our own situation would he great.Has anyone else dealt with a similar situation?

This is a great place to learn and to connect with people so take advantage of all the great resources.

i was exploring and saw some of the neighborhoods in kyle, Tx has school ratings like 8 and brand new houses in the range of 300K with potential rents at $2200 per month so overall making them cash flow positive. however, i am not sure why Kyle is a popular place. it is mid way between austin and san antonio but that does not seem to be a strong enough reason.
