Most times the car has to be turned in if the lease was taken after the loan paperwork was generated.

Additionally, any losses generated from other properties during the year of sale will also be able to offset that gain.

I love post that generate this much good conversation. 

As for taxes, your cash-flowing real estate investment will generate losses in the early years, due to depreciation and mortgage interest write-offs, and it will SAVE you taxes. 

You will find that the floorplan and general "look" of all homes from 1990 to 2020 is fairly identical, so I would find a good used one with at least two bedrooms (one BR is simply too small).I would pay cash for it (assume maybe $15,000 for a 1990 one in good condition) as the interest rate on the loan will be higher than any investment that same money could generate. 

I plan on charging the tenants the monthly cost of the generation which is about $40 and if they use more electricity I would bill them as well.

Now, this would create a ton of other problems, basically cratering an over-indebted financial system, BUT it would also transfer wealth/buying power from boomers who own property in these cities to younger generations.

You're paying $525K for an asset that will generate $3.8k in rent, that's low (see the 2% / 1% rule)2.

FOMO will work against impatient, fee driven companies who need deal churn to generate fees and make a living.

We must focus on lead generation each and everyday if we hope to grow our business.
