What I love about Baselane is that it was built BY real estate investors FOR real estate investors so it's really dialed in to what you're going to need in order to prepare your taxes, keep your books up to date and the more operational aspects of being an REI like tenant vetting and processing rent payments.

Roof lines, window styles, and masonry/siding all play into this natural flow, and the biggest mistake you can make when designing your flips is not following the flow that is already present!

I’ll also call code enforcement and check the county records just to see when things like roof/hvac have been done/permitted. 

Like you said, I do believe you'll see more firms with "all services under one roof" moving forward. 

The home was in rough shape—think mold, a hole in the roof, and years of water damage.

Here's the details:ARV- $210- $220KRent: about $1,900/month3 beds/ 2 bathsNeeds: New roof, New HVAC, New fence, Minot touch ups inside like paint and cabinet touch ups.Rehab- About $40kI offered $140K and he countered with $190K.

Spend what’s needed to upgrade with reliable mechanical systems, roof that doesn’t leak, remediate all mold; interior design modernized; in other words a place that will attract a higher income no hassle tenant.  

So 50% of the roof depreciation would be depreciable.

Adding a 1/2 bath, new roof, central air or other typical improvements will increase the value of the property. 

I assume 15% of the rent for regular repairs and capital expenses (roof, furnace, windows etc.) and 5 % of the rent for vacancies.
