so far, it's only been for the depreciation pieces which can take some finesse depending on what you're doing.I would recommend that whenever you get to the point of needing a CPA, I'd have the CPA firm do your bookkeeping and then it's very easy for them to do your taxes.  

But, those same people are still out there and with the market having picked up, they're poking their heads back out and do whatever they can to get a piece of the pie again. 

Appreciation is a secondary on turnkeys (secondary piece of awesomeness, but not mandatory).

One piece if you can get it in.

Thanks in advance for any and all help to piece together this puzzle.This is a scenario I'm hoping to understand.Purchased 2-family home for 900,000.

Ideal clients are those that are buying not because a piece of paper says they will get a good return, but because the actions of a company and the commitment they show to being great tells an investor that they will be able to sleep well at night.  

However, I talked to an accountant friend of mine and he told me to be wary of the heavy debt based model that they promote that’s based on the use of HELOC’s to build your wealth.

I got lucky- after a recommended CPA literally developed Alzheimers, and sold her practice to a real piece of work (putting it nicely),  almost by luck, I found my current CPA - who was just starting his own practice and accepting new clients.

However, if the tenant's action or inaction is promoting an infestation (you'll need to have proof), then I would issue a three day to cure or quit (check the laws in your state on specific notice you can use for violating this section in your lease).If it is a multi-housing, treating one side is ineffective.

After a full year of dealing with lenders, I am happy to have closed on my first piece of property in Brooklyn, NY!!!
