My partner is a builder in the LA area, so if anyone is interested in taking advantage of SB-9 to build additional units on their property, feel free to reach out anytimeSounds great, Alan!

I can make the numbers on a good property turn bad for a year or more due to the loss of rents, if they can't be recovered. 

I purchased my first investment property through an online auction for delinquent property tax.

These areas have more affordable properties compared to Boston and are showing signs of growth, especially with infrastructure and job opportunities increasing.

I think my own research says that I cannot reap the benefit because you would have to have put the property into a fund upon purchase.   

I took on some debt to prep the property and hope to pay it off this summer—our peak season with lots of river and swimming traffic.It’s a 3-bedroom that currently sleeps 6 (king, queen, and a queen sofa bed).

@Eric Greenberg yes, I own a property at 9th and Diamond.

@Denis Orlov I don't do STR, but I've rented one of my personal properties for arbitrage before. 

It sounds like you have a solid, strategic approach, especially with a focus on value-add properties in appreciating markets.

The first thing here would be the regulations and laws governing acquiring properties, managing properties and selling properties.
