Cleveland OH offers to pay for half of the sidewalk and apron replacement.   

Welcome to the community and be ready for a huge amount of information at your finger tips.

Proc. 2004-51, qualified indicia of ownership were transferred to the the earlier of a total of 180 – days or the date upon which the exchanger has to file its tax return for the year in which the exchange was initiated, to complete the purchase of the replacement properties."

A good tip is to reach out to contractors, visit local supply stores, and check out online resources for cost ranges.

Tiling your tub surrounds to the ceiling not only looks nicer, but also helps waterproof the area better, and will likely never need replaced (versus vinyl surround which last about 3 yrs before tenants start cracking them, in my experiences).

In truth, my goal has always been to replace my W2 income, so the focus was on the $ coming in every month, and not so much the number of properties.  

Personally I only use my HELOC on short term projects like flips, new builds and BRRRRs where I know I will be replacing the capital within months.You may be better off waiting a year and save up more cash or liquidate your index funds if the returns on a property will be better.

My biggest tip here is work with the smaller companies.

I haven't used rentalhero (yet, thanks for the tip!)
