Local Investment StrategiesHouse Hacking: Given the affordable entry prices, Albuquerque can be a great place to start house hacking, especially near the university areas.BRRRR: For those familiar with the Buy, Rehab, Rent, Refinance, Repeat method, there are opportunities in Albuquerque to purchase under-valued properties, especially in areas undergoing gentrification.Airbnb/Short Term Rentals: As previously mentioned, the city's rich cultural appeal can make certain properties lucrative for short-term rentals.

I'm a local real estate broker, investor, and manager (100+ rentals, mostly Airbnb/STR and multifamily).House hacking is a tried-and-true method and in Sacramento you can produce some meaningful income while enjoying the appreciation and tax benefits of owning real estate.

Whomever will do her taxes when she does sell, (can be done prior, and should be asap) will have to submit a change of accounting method form .....I've had multiple clients that never took depreciation and when they sold, we had to fix it...doing your own taxes isn't as easy as some tax software companies make it seem 

Are there any particular investing strategies or methods you’re leaning toward?
