e.g purchase price is $2m with a down payment of $500k.

Then when you do that, why would they want to buy at more than your purchase price? 

That said it has become an issue in the recent purchase of my personal home.

Hi everyone, I inherited a tenant when I purchased a property 6 years ago and this tenant moved out.

I have a list of properties I am looking to purchase so I am looking for a way I can find the information of all the owners.

I personally have used a heloc to purchase and renovate an investment property, like you mentioned I cashed out at the end and paid back the heloc. 

My idea is to purchase a property with a division (or the possibility of one) so I can place her in a small apartment 1/1 and rent the rest of the house to offset the Mtg as much as I can.As things are today its been impossible to find something that covers it all, Im seeing that I would still have to come up with some cash every month.I met with a lender yesterday and he presented to me an option for a 5% down loan.

Account Closed, You can combine multiple 1031 exchanges into the purchase of a larger property. 

Many homeowners locked in mortgage rates at historically low levels, between 2.5% and 3%, providing a golden opportunity for those refinancing or purchasing homes at that time.

Income is $600,000 per year and husband and wife both work full-time non real estate jobs.Is it true that the tax benefits are greater, or realized more quickly, on purchases like furniture or televisions to itemize a rental property, when they are made AFTER the date the property is put in service?
