Quote from @Celli Mowery: As a BP binge listener, investor and agent, I'm curious why smaller areas of Kentucky are not receiving focus with their low land costs, & lower entry points?

Many of our investors choose areas that have low land cost and steady population growth.

Condos actually give you the biggest bang on deprecation because such low land value but any RE will do! 

@Travis Smock A cost segregation study could benefit your 6-unit property by accelerating depreciation, even on a lower-value property like yours, especially with low land value.

You're also comparing the mountainous region of North Carolina with an oceanfront region of Florida rather than something a little more intellectually honest such as the saltwater marsh and lowland regions of North Carolina on the Atlantic ocean. 

Also need to focus on markets/communities that strike the balance of relatively low land cost, strong rental demand and include professional property management to strategically minimize vacancies and maximize rental income from day one.If you have more questions, feel free to reach out!

To offset no income 'reduction' from lack of qualified rerirement plan contributions I held a lot of real estate with low land value. 

I'd buy a SFH or something with little/low land value would be best.

Lowlands are great for rice and soy but flooding is bad for homes.

That, along with a low land cost makes me think the SFH is the way to go.
