I am working with a RE-focused CPA this year who charges a flat fee of $2,500 and is very responsive so far.

One thing I am curious of - typically many of the hard money lenders will charge a 1-3 year pre-payment penalty in these types of scenarios unless your client paid points to not have that pre-payment penalty.

What are they charging per night? 

.* Additional Charges: Jenny requested that I deposit on her checking account an additional $20-25k for her to purchase furniture, which I refused because I thought it was very strange, opting to give my card # instead.* Work Quality: Jenny never showed up to the house, she sent 2 people instead, she never mentioned she would not show up herself, she never asked for approval to send two others instead, they did not complete the job, and there were multiple unauthorized charges on my card.* Receipts and Expenses: Once I brought to Jenny's attention that we were 20k above budget, she refused for days to give me the receipts, saying that I needed to give her my credit card statement first.

Now they are charging $395 per 1031 exchange!

For all you know it a violent situation and she could get a judge’s order and you pry couldn’t/shouldn’t charge then. 

Also make sure to build on a property located in a desirable location with larger pop density and if holding for rentals, charge median rent for that market as lenders want to see a bigger pool of buyers/renters available to occupy/sell. 

My cleaners take a video after every turn, my team goes in to check everything is good after cleaning and record salt and PH level logs and I have a licensed plumber who is in charge of maintaining plumbing, water heater, and boiler system with logs.

Most renters cannot (or will not) take proper care of a pool.So...if you decide to go for a pool property, make sure you have it maintained...and charge it to the tenant.

Charge a fee for the ESA.
