I've found that CPAs that focus on a niche area such as real estate rather than offering general services to everyone are typically much more knowledgeable about real estate tax incentives.

.📜 Know the rules – No "deal-making" in the forums (that means no advertising, pitching services, or looking for partners).

Another option that requires more legwork is to call the servicer/ producer of the inverter.

@Bonnie Low - it's important to know what services you're paying for.

Their pro formas felt optimistic with providing 6% annual appreciation and property management that is only about 6% of rent so I take it with a grain of salt (they offer their own property management services but it has terrible reviews on Yelp so I would probably go with someone else). 

We don't allow any "deal-making" in the forums, which includes advertising your services or properties, looking for partners, etc.

Lenders usually determine whether properties are lendable based on the debt service coverage ratio. 

My $2000 also covers stuff that inevitably break under normal use - I had to replace a washer $700, a stove $600, a microwave $100, and a grill $400, all  within last 2 years, and paid close to $1000 for various service calls by electricians and HVAC techs and pest control. 

Owners mistakenly ASSUME all PMCs offer the exact SAME SERVICES and PERFORM those services EXACTLY THE SAME WAY, so price is the only differentiator – and they often select the first PMC they call!

I'm looking to sell my first home, which I've been renting out for the last 2 1/2 years -- I first contacted my property management company  for seller services, and they initially wanted a year exclusive selling rights.
