@Jack Thanadabouth your rental in WI will have its own Schedule E in your tax returns and all gains or losses will either augment or reduce your tax liability. I believe you will also have to file WI state tax returns.
I am not a CPA neither a lawyer so take my advice with a grain of salt but this is how we (my CPA and I) do our yearly tax returns :-)
Are you happy with your Green Bay purchase? Was it a turn-key? Got good PM?

@Rory Calnan, hope your purchase/investment in Manchester has been productive. Care to share more details, e.g. location within the city, NOI, etc?
Agree with you on the cash flow opportunity but still haven't been able to move my deals that far north yet...
Thanks,
Flavio

Not a lot of comps in Chelmsford for a 4-family. Comps the realtor and I looked were all 10+ years old and much less expensive than this one.
I see 21k or about 5% over asking is already a lot of $

Title says it all: where is our Boston north / suburbs market going?
We just placed an offer (21k above asking price of 449K) on a 4 family in very good condition (3 of the 4 units) in North Chelmsford and our offer was not the highest one.
Really tough to find properties that cash flow in this state!
Just venting and wondering what other fellow investors BP members are doing in the area to overcome that?!?

Hi @Stephen Covel. I have a cash-flowing property in Taunton, MA. My husband and I actually bought it back in 2013 before we found BiggerPockets or really anything about Real Estate Investing, so while we analyzed several properties and did choose well at the time, I think our next purchase we should be able to do much better. But if you are interested, here's how that one is going:
It's a 3-family house, 4db, 5bd, 4bd (one unit per story).
We bought it for $270,000 in 2013. Got a fixed 15-year, paying about $2600 a month
We get $1300, 1500, $1300. =$4100 per month. That makes it cashflow about $1500 a month, minus expenses, which so far haven't been overwhelming.
I've been watching the MLS for the last 12 months and haven't seen another property I was ready to jump at yet. I'm actually about to launch a Direct Mail marketing campaign in the area, both to find a great next deal and to wholesale (to raise money for that next down payment.) I'd be happy to let you know if I find something worthwhile. Are you looking for multifamily or single family at the moment?
Leslianne, what are of Taunton is your property located? You are absolutely correct to say that it is not easy to find good quality multi's in the area any longer...
