Do any of you create a "angled" DBA or LLC when doing niche marketing.I was thinking something along the lines of "Baltimore Code Violations" LLC or whatever (DBA would be cheaper set up wise) but you could use that on your envelope so that people would actually OPEN the letter?

But the rate we were paying was in line with what we had paid two years earlier, maybe up 4-5%!

In Atlanta, some property owners pay homeless people to live in abandoned homes as a security measure.In early November, Rameau drove a woman and her 18-month old daughter to a ranch home on a quiet street lined with swaying tropical foliage.

Simply to say that if you can get into a property with 35% equity at purchase, have adequate reserves, you can still benefit from that investment without cash flow (tax deductions, 35% equity, future appreciation, etc)Bottom line: Shoot for cash flow on buy and holds, buy with equity, buy in a market your research has pointed to future appreciation, use the power of leverage properly, manage properly (self or hire) and repeat.The topic was talking about single units and then apartments were mentioned.

Or is it a ok to be paying a little bit each month and figure out that down the line, I will be breakiing even and then back into the positive cash flow?

I only have a cell and a email , no fax line or home/office number.

So I'm not alone in this line of thinking....

Given the above, I take exception to your comment in the article that "with "straight" line depreciation, we get the same deduciton every year -- meaning our depreciation deduction in year three is the same as the depreciation deduction in year twenty-three."

business lines of credit and private money lenders are Great sources.

So I stop into the Dollar General store in my town and buy four $25 prepaid Visa cards.A nice older woman walked to one of checkouts at the same time as me and insisted that I go ahead of her in line because she had several things to buy and she saw that I only had the Visa cards.
