Fundamentally, the money supply had irreparable damage and that would tell you scarcity plays will remain the most potent.

So ask yourself do you want to start from the scratch learn the fundamentals and basics with a 10-15% cap or would you rather go all in and don’t forget your medical needs in between your decision making.

Yes, I can KS.The fundamental deal is the same as always, making sure that a traditional residential property meets our criteria, is well renovated, and has a great ratio of purchase price and rental income.Just as an example: I was offered a duplex in Ohio last week for $135K, rental income of both units together is $1900/month and the down payment through a special financing vehicle is $15188.Initial cash flow is minimal but still positive and with a planned refi in about 3-4 years when rates are back down, it will jump massively.

While you may be comfortable that you are receiving a clean Title, you now no longer have insurance about the chain of Title prior to your ownership.Additionally, if the Title Insurance becomes invalidated (which is possible since you no longer have an insurable interest, a fundamental characteristic in insurance) then you should be in breach your loan convenant to have Title insurance is my understanding. 

Aloha,The number of units you can effectively manage is entirely dependent on age and condition of each property; quality of Tenants and effectiveness of your screening  and move in process; available qualified contractor pool; solid systems for all major processes; your personal knowledge of all applicable laws, construction fundamentals, and troubleshooting capabilities.Do the right things right, the first time.

 - research fundamentals of a market can reduce risk that it will not appreciate in the long term. - initial cash flow has a poor relationship to actual cash flow over a long hold.  

Until you understand the fundamentals Id recommend staying away from such a heavy lift project. 

Depreciation makes fundamental sense, so the question becomes why the shorter basis for some components.

Jackson, MS may not make sense from your "fundamentals standpoint" but for me I went from more debts than assets (including retirement funds) during the recession to over a million in assets over debts by the time I retired.

Fundamentally comes down to philosophy on income inequality.Also everyone pays capital gains tax without deferral on other investments and securities.
