If you ever have any questions you can DM me.      

HOWEVER, my question is: given our goals/strategy, when analyzing returns for potential deals on the single-family rentals, along with a relatively low cash-on-cash return of roughly 1-2% should we allow ourselves to consider/count on 1) modest appreciation growth of only 3% year over year, 2) expense increases mirroring the current CPI of 3.5% and 3) low rental upside of only 1% (or even 0% given current market conditions).For example, if a deal gives a TOTAL return of roughly 15% year over year for 10 years but only starts out at about 1% cash flow via long-term rents, is this a good idea?

My question is whether this will this cause issues with setting up the purchase price as the cost basis and depreciating the property accordingly?

And some mistakes were made by tradesmen but looking back I didn't ask the correct questions or have the knowledge to make certain they wouldn't make mistakes (such as knocking down a vented chimney - that happened once and although it was on the roofer I now know I must make certain the roofers know the venting situation prior).I'll close with this - when I worked in film and was a lowly production assistant a higher-up said "You know what I like about you?

The loan officer came back with questions that I need advice with.
