@Ramada Evans your approach, not doing your own research and just asking a bunch of strangers for general advice, has a high probability of ending badly. 

They didn't verify anything but apparently are telling people I am a scammer which helps me understand why I am no longer getting any traction on Facebook.Further, the person private messaging me spent (literally all night long) researching me and sending me messages insisting I am a scammer.  

Research local market rates to set competitive rents, and consider offering utilities or furnishings to attract tenants.

So, when investing in areas they don’t really know, investors should research the different property Class submarkets.

That was my impression as well from him and my research results. 

It’s a bit of a tangled web, but if you need more info on it, do your research first, and then you can contact me to help you sort out the current rules. 3) The tax benefits are severely hampered if you there is any money from your original property that doesn’t get spent on the replacement property, so it’s best to purchase a more expensive one to avoid losing those benefits.4) It is imperative that you do not receive any money directly from the sale of the original investment property.

The rehab estimate seems very low and the ARV seems really high in my opinion, just based on a tiny bit of research looking at what this property was listed for recently (it hasn’t sold), and what the surrounding similar properties are worth (~$250k).

do more research and make sure the property will cash flow when you leave.

We plan to be as thorough and detailed in our research and due diligence when calculating ARV and rehab costs.

Maintain a credit score of 620 or higher, save for a down payment, and research markets carefully.
