Purchase price: $200,000 Cash invested: $80,000 Duplex What made you interested in investing in this type of deal?

How can we make this a win-win situation? 

Not a CPA or lawyer but this is how I've done it so far:1.

Obviously this depends on the amount of your loan, when you start to pay the extra amount, etc.

There are several factors that lead to this, the primary driver is picking tenants who pay their bills.

Against my better judgement I modified the criteria based on feedback I received and this is not going as expected.

Lets just say that $50K has been carrying in losses from this particular property, this means (according to my CPA) that I can only offset $50K from the capital gain of the sale of this one property.

I was told by my lender that these costs should come down more as some of the title fees are conservative estimates at this point.

This is because Mortgage backed securities are in direct competition with investors looking for "safer" investments backed by the full faith of the United States Government. 

Is this only useful for W2 income?
