I mentioned these 3 as I have not decided which is best for me yet.

However when my agent contacted the owner for a viewing the owner says that he has two of the listed triplex for sale and that he wants to sell them together. 150k each and they are probably worth 175k each.So if this property works out it could be a great deal for me so my mind starts working on how i could buy them both.

Howdy @Kenneth RiederYour numbers are really borderline for me.  

I guess they are self-screening for me.

I contacted a CPA and he said I would need to amend my forms from 2015 on since that's within the 3 year amendment period; he didn't mention anything about the missed depreciation prior to 2015.

Skip the amendments for previous years and file a form 3115 along with the 2018 tax form by the due date and claim the depreciation from 2018 onwards?

My plan was always to retire when my passive income reached at least half of my W2 salary.Real estate has done well for me, BUTI have continued to increase my W2 salary each year.So I'm actually going backwards with regards to my retirement goal.And that is OK...

@Joel Senko hi Joel, I’m new also but what has been working for me is reading blog posts in the specific niche that you are interested in i.e.

A good win for me, for my retirement accounts, and for my investors.

Is best for me.
