Hey Rebecca, I'm a broker and investor up in Sacramento and manage about 100 investment properties (STR and LTR).Many of my clients are high W2 earners seeking "bonus depreciation" to offset tax liability by investing in STR.

But if you see the value in investing money into your own personal education, then maybe this could be a good fit for you.

@Jade Frank how much has your current home gone up in value?

Although your message is from a while back, I'm happy to provide an update.

A lot of the beach rentals down there are pretty outdated and don't provide many amenities.

One book I highly recommend is “Buy It, Rent It, Profit” by Bryan Chavis—it’s a great read for investors looking to build long-term wealth.Best of luck with your real estate journey!

Connect with local wholesalers and investor friendly agents and provide your criteria to start receiving deal flow.

How did you add value to the deal?

Appraisal is where if the value of the property didn't meet the value of the loan, you can negotiate the price to lower it.

During this time, I found myself unemployed and having difficulty finding a new job due to not completing my degree or having formal training beyond high school or military.
