A few things to ask are the following:1.

I'm open to helping you explore your options.

I personally own a large portfolio here in Memphis and I hired a property manager for the very first proeprty and I still use them today. 

Strip the floor to the subfloor and paint over it to stain block then just recarpet or put in vinyl to mitigate future stains. 

But my suggestion for future listings.Look at days on market in the area that you are going to list.

Quote from @Kody Smith: without getting too deep into my finances, what my strategy is...1. take loans to buy properties (leverage)2. fix/flip for day to day cash flow income3. use some of the fix/flip income to buy consistent cash flow through:- business acquisition, - commercial properties (MF and store fronts),I have no intention of doing ALL of the management myself, I will hire management as needed (medium term goal)my expected core role is money provider, evaluating the numbers, making decisions, and connecting with investors, wholesalers, lenders, contractors, and property owners.while I am just on step 2 of the journey, I am looking toward step 3 to stabilize, and not worry about if house prices drop mid project or not (or not worry as much) So to be fair this is more about obtaining and growing a real estate business not simply buying rentals for cashflow.

Purchase price: $15,000 Cash invested: $25,000 Sub to deal - paid the seller and wholesaler $15,000 + $7500 closing costs to assume $84,000 mortgage with a monthly PITI of $575.

I was able to get more information on the property then if I didn’t know the seller and I’m still able to contact the seller if I have questions.

A little about me: i’m new to the real estate world and eager to learn everything I can to build a successful investing journey.

The best way to find a CPA or real estate-focused accountant is to checkout who is posting in the tax forum all day helping folks :)
