Is saving the fee a PM charges worth the potential thousands in cost and headaches?

If I had the business headquartered at some commercial or industrial space, I could deduct the entire cost of the space. 

They usually sell for a really attractive price because investment property financing is (obviously) difficult, somewhat limiting the buyer pool to owner-operator small business owners (who in turn are typically great clients, as well).  

I have been in Milwaukee WI for quite a while as investing in my backyard in NY is cost prohibitive. good luck on your journey!!!! 

For a conventional loan, you can borrow UP to what you paid for the property plus closing costs OR 75% of the appraised value which ever is less.  

What I like about multifamily is the splitting of costs.

The biggest factors, from what I can tell, are age and rebuild cost. 

I lived in LA for a decade and we have many friends, family, clients and community members suffering and send our sincerest condolences to all of those experiencing and affected this tragedy. 

If private companies continue to provide the insurance, I suspect we will see further increased premium costs which will need to be reflected in the rents tenants pay (all tenants: LTR, MTR, STR).  

Next, I tend to recommend that clients stay away from inflated HOA fees.
