Also, as tax shouldn't drive your investment decision, as @Clayton Silva said. 

Jesus, your drive at 17 is impressive.

Seriously QuickBooks to record the expense and Google drive to save the receipts.

A nice portfolio is 10-40 properties, and yes you should drive by your own assets to check for broken windows.

Originally was thinking to relocate, after going there, driving around the neighborhood, Summerlin West, South, North a bit.

For those who don’t know Jay, he’s someone who’s been around the block more than a few times, the largest contributor to the forums and still has the drive and sharpness you hope to have after decades in the game.We talked shop.

You are looking at year 1 cashflow, that is almost never positive, but will improve over time as inflation drives rent.

I now live in Columbia but am not opposed to driving back and forth and investing in Horry Co.  

It is near economic hubs like Nationwide Children’s Hospital, Ohio State Campus, and New Albany.Turnkey properties are popular in Old North, Merion Village, Southern Orchards, Old Towne East, Driving Park, North Linden, North Hilltop, Franklinton, Reynoldsburg, and Hungarian Village.For BRRRR and Fix & Flip, consider Eastmoor, Hilltop, Whitehall, and Linden.

or maybe once a month you can drive to one of the cities for one?
