I was quoted $800 by a property manager years ago to replace a $150 garage door opener.  

Have you replaced your water heater anode rod with a powered anode rod, such as one from Corro-Protec?

I am in the process of networking locally to start figuring out who can/should be part of my team.Originally I had had an interest in being a limited partner in syndications, but with my goal of enough cash flow to replace my day job (and eventually my wife's), I don't think that that is going to get me where I want to go.So I am now considering SFH, small (<4 unit) multitenant.

The fourth thing they have is engineered hardwood flooring.

We had already been planning to do some maintenance and repairs (repave driveway, re-insulate attic, replace two broken faucets, other minor items), but were wondering if, for tax reasons, we are better off waiting until we close on the new home and this is no longer our primary.Can this work count toward tax deductions as preparatory work on rental property, even if it's currently our primary?

Smaller ones are filling up within 12 hours and the large unit they left with 2x 5 gallon water jugs to empty into AND a catchment below....because obviously the sellers knew that it fills over 5+ gallons in just TWO DAYS.We have had to get a structural engineer in who has noted other water damage throughout the basement (unfinished) that was hidden behind sellers boxes and personal items during our inspection. 

This way, I don't have to scramble to replace it right awayReferrals - she was recommended by my spa person but also provided me with a couple of referrals. 

There's an axiom in Engineering that says one problem doesn't cause a failure, but combine a series of problems, and failure almost becomes inevitable.

The past couple of years as L3Harris has begun to move production/engineering from California to the area (cost cutting measure, not political), we have been seeing 10% appreciation yoy or so. 

An additional benefit of a detailed engineering-based Cost Segregation Study is that it can increase potential insurance premium savings as well as provide support for the property tax appeals process.
