Any likes or dislikes so far?

As such, contractors have high prices and a flashy pickup truck to show for it.For me, I really dislike the flashy contractor middleman and would much rather deal with the "rednecks" directly. 

First of all I love the 'appreciation' pun ;)New appliances - 5 yearcarpet - depends on how it is affixed 5 or 27.5Vinyl floor - also should be 5 yearlandscaping - some can be applied to 15 year, not all.Everything else. there are over a dozen categories of items than can be classified as 5-year property.In short, there is a lot of benefit that you are passing over by not having a proper engineer based study done.Not only will a proper Cost Segregation study get you 30%+ more benefit, but it is also bulletproof in the event of an IRS audit.In addition, the IRS dislikes when people and CPAs do guestimates without support or substantiation of their evaluation.The following is a case excerpt to this point.A “quality” cost segregation study is “both accurate and well documented[.]”

ONLY if you purchase using Conventional FHA loans do you run into the Owner Occupied issue.The RIGHT way to buy rentals is the Commercial Loan and OO doesn't matter.  99% of BP dislike this choice due to the higher buy-in cost, LTV 70-75%, but if you qualify for one of these, you WILL earn a cash flow. 

I find that people dislike carpeting.

Exactly.Look you can dislike me all you want, but, I am not here to win a popularity contest right?

Is it any wonder why I dislike my PM?

Hey Cham, Thank you for responding to the email, im planning a trip in July and i wanted to scope out the area, see what places i like/dislike.

There may be a better use of your time (and money) doing something you enjoy more, or dislike less, and will bring you closer to whatever goal you have.  

I like the business aspect however dislike the salesman side.
