Bonus points if you can force appreciation while you're in there.

The best bonus of house-hacking to me is the low entry point so with less leverage if the numbers work it should cash flow even better if you refinance down the line.

I paid 30k for my masters, no loans, and got that money back with raises and bonuses in less than two years after finishing.

. - Four out of ten are rescinding job offers, and a similar amount are reducing or eliminating the sign-on bonuses that had become common to attract talent in the tight job market.

Any areas that have cash flow and have appreciation would be a bonus.

You are likely able to take bonus depreciation on both expenses, which means for the 2021 tax year, 100% expense.

You came out on top, with a headaches included as a bonus, lol. 

The most we can hope for is to get most of our money out and anything else is good an unexpected bonus.

I don't invest for cash flow, I invest for appreciation and depreciation and cash flow is just a bonus if I can find it, but that might not be the case for someone who is trying to live off their rental income. 

After standard deduction 24,800(married filing jointly), I have a negative taxable income of -24800 which is same as 0, meaning I don't get any bonus points for having large negative income.
