Kendall,Since you asked, here’s my story.Thirty years ago, in my mid-20s, I made a life-changing move from the San Francisco Bay Area to Ohio.

Generally speaking, I would not recommend STR in West Sacramento, however, we'll see if that changes with the A's coming to town :)

Here's why:The Multi-State Chess Game:• Client had properties in 3 states• Each state has different deadlines to assess taxes• Federal changes trigger automatic state assessments• Timing the response saved $45K in state taxes🏠 Real Estate Investor Pro Tip:States can't assess back taxes if their statute of limitations expires before federal changes finalize.

There is nothing magical about RE and nothing is secret.. the only thing I see that has really changed is how information is disseminated and transferred out to the public..

Can the zoning change after the fact? 

To check the proof in the pudding: look at Avantstay's host ratings on Airbnb or other platforms.

Even though there is low inventory, interest rates are high, and many properties don't cash flow, look harder there are always deals, you just need to find/make them.

This decision will also be impacted by your interest rate.

Some questions I would want to answer: Has anything changed in the surrounding soil recently? 

@Deirdre Lizio see a lot of competiting PMCs start with a pledge of doing it better than "what's out there".Always interesting to revisit them 3-5 years later - after they've experienced the reality of challenging tenants AND owners.Look no further than Evernest: they started out with flat fee management at $99/month and promises of better & fairer service & pricing.Now they're at 10%, capped at $199/month - wonder what changed?
