I'm paying about the same to live in my house as I was splitting a 1-bedroom apartment with a roommate, but now I'm seeing that appreciation, sweat equity, and tax benefits you touched on.I love reading comments and posts like yours to give me a refresher on why I got into a house hack in the first place.

Hi all, Do you guys pay income tax on the rental properties you own in the city of Cleveland?

Remember, they can always refer themselves😊Now, make it a goal to call at least 5-10 of these people EVERY day and ask a MAX OF THREE off the list below of who they know that:Just inherited a homeHad a loved one pass awayIs behind on their mortgage or tax paymentsHas a relative that can’t take care of their house anymoreHas a house they’re having trouble sellingIs facing bankruptcyKnows a probate attorneyKnows a bankruptcy attorneyetcWhy only three off the list per contact?

Closing costs vary based on State and County for Taxes, Insurance, Doc stamps, transfer taxes, Title, and every Bank/Lender requires different points/hard costs.If you have any specific questions of if your just getting started feel free to message me or reach I out. 

@Sara HabtomJ Scott's book pair about flipping and estimating flips was pretty comprehensive and no upselling.Amanda Han's two books on tax strategies were also pretty good starters. 

Does anyone know a good and fair lawyer in Ocala, Florida who can assist with filing a small claims court case against tenants for damages caused on the property?

@Roger MatthewsHomestead laws and the Homestead exemption for property taxes have nothing to do with each other. 

Trying to see if I should pay more lawyers fee to get the money judgement. 

There a ton of pitfalls that can just crush you. from bad tenants from hell to city regulations that are impossible to figure out to taxes to bad rehab jobs etc.

On the other hand, a SFH is generally farther from the water (I'm trying to stay within golf cart distance to the beach), has less amenities than a condo, and higher property taxes, but seems like it would offer more appreciation than a condo.
