S-Corp financials are no different than those of a C-Corp.There are some "internal" schedules that need to be maintained in order to track the shareholders' basis, but this does not affect the reporting to external users of the reports.

The real power will be in nurturing and maintaining that e-mail list -- you won't have something for everyone right away but eventually you might so if you stay in touch, continue to provide value, eventually, there will be a sale for you.

And the more real assets you own, the more time and effort goes into maintaining them.- Difficulty.

That said, not everyone is looking for passive income, and if you're willing to do some work and maintain active participation in all your deals (even after selling the note), this sounds like a great strategy.Thanks for sharing...

We maintain the exterior so it is not an eye sore.

These are usually properties that have proximity to something that will maintain its draw longterm but the hood itself has become dated and down.

This is especially true if it means maintaining a working relationship with a great agent.

Repairs ($1200 Per Duplex*Tenants Maintain Exterior): $3600= $1247034450 NOI/ 395,000= 8.7% CAP34450 NOI-20185 Mortgage= $14265 Cash Flow, or $1189 a month14265/98750= 14.4% ReturnI've been looking for quite a while, but I want to know if this is a good deal.

For me it has been positive.Many immigrants are fixing to leave and are selling of businesses.They built a model on paying under the table etc. so there workers 100 would be 100 versus our 100 after everything is taken out 65 to 70 bucks.Many restaurants with the new reform will not be able to maintain profit margins with the new costs and will simply sell off or shut down.I am getting commercial short sale listings with immigrants leaving the country.On the flip side I hear landlords worry when a majority of tenants are immigrants.They feels they might go to being full to a huge vacancy and cash flow problem.Labor costs might rise for contractor rates.It will be interesting to see how this plays out.

In my markets, I always figure 3%, but I know that's completely maintainable here.
