Our top return property is far better than our average return property.I do not get to make the rules (and there are many rules/regulations that I do not like), but the rules have not prevented me from making good profits in CA real estate. 

And would this be considered "capital gains" since it's re-sold under 1-year therefore having to pay a large % of tax on the profit?

Quote from @Theresa Holl: Quote from @Varinder Saini: We are building a real estate AI platform that specializes in analyzing disclosure packets of hundreds of pages and generating concise single report of important findings. 

With property insurers’ profitability and trade combined ratios improving, we can expect some relief soon.

We’re looking to install a property management firm within the organization as a way to generate steady income and keep operations running.

Getting a base 8-15% return instead of 2-3% before actual “profit” puts you way ahead of the cash buyer. 

After months of reassemble and some customization work, the property sold for a decent profit.

I’m reaching out to you, the seasoned investors, for guidance as I work toward making my first acquisition.So far, I’ve analyzed over 100 deals to assess their viability and profitability, and I understand the law of percentages in CRE.

Quote from @Matt Weddon: Really what generated this question was a section from Brandon and Heather Turner's Management Book, which has been incredibly informative and helpful.

I generated the list by combining Zillow's smooth, seasonally adjusted home value dataset (ZHVI) with their rent index (ZORI) for metro areas.
