I know there are exemptions but each state is slightly different on how they have implemented the law.

A good strategy you could implement for your next investment property is to buy with FHA, then live in the property for a year and then take out a HELOC as owner occupied at 85%.

It has very little automated features, but you can learn transactions so monthly invoicing, while still a pain, goes relatively quickly.

All assets from the Trust go directly to the Beneficiaries without Probate and Tax Free.A POA authorizes one person to act in behalf of another legally, but if the transaction is Taxable or under control of Probate, so beit.A good Trust as a Pour over Will and a POA for the administration of the Estate.Consult your attorney for details and how to implement any or all of these.

If cost to implement is expensive but you plan to hold awhile then the savings could eventually outpace the cost in the long run.        

Have you been able to find any tax incentives or subsidies for implement green initiatives ?

And with many lower level jobs automating (see the Southside McDonalds) the lower income tenants are at risk of losing their income.

By doing this, you will eventually work through your initial apprehension and fear and start implementing ways to take action, TAKE ACTION!

I'm seeking to automate my payment processes for my newest pick-up.

Please don't just read it and implement this!
