How long do rental properties typically stay on market before they are occupied with a tenant?

I also just found out my Tenant lied on his application and was supposed to register as a sex offender YEARS AGO!!.

The other "economical" areas are going to be more management heavy (think cheaper houses that are expensive in the long run) and the A/A+ neighborhoods will be very difficult to get cash flow (think Elmwood Village or Hertel Ave duplexes that are $350-400K but gross $3600/mo on the top end). 

Would I still be able to cost seg on this now?

I do think @theboxhop on IG does a great job on theirs, and there are several amazing builds with them.

U can still see those large blocks off land grants in northern CA in their original configuration.Of course out west we survey most every thing on Base line and meridian starting at a certain point..

Does anyone have any advice as I am just starting out on my real estate investment journey.

The tax advantages of buying/holding gas stations are pretty great.Many of the components of gas stations including pumps, tanks, external parking areas, and other equipment are classified as either 5 or 15 year property so you can bonus depreciate a lot of it (minus the land value) and get significant deductions in year 1.With the current bonus depreciation rate at 60%, a $1 million gas station acquisition could still lead to $100K+ in year 1 deductions depending on the specifics of your deal.

Once the rental home is sold, my half of the proceeds will be roughly $113,000 (this is after closing costs and taxes and is an estimation based on the current market value). 

The furniture in the unit is ours, so we are responsible for that.We do get a separate lessee insurance policy on the furniture and such that we've placed in the condo, and we require our sub-lessees to get a policy as well.
