We bought couches from Lazyboy that have held up really well and I expect they will last many more years.Some Amazon stuff is good, read the reviews. 

I hope you are asking two separate unrelated questions, because there's no point in doing cost segregation for properties held inside your self-directed solo 401k, save for some very rare exceptions.Some of the Bigger Pockets experts who operate reputable costs segregation companies are @Bernard Reisz, @Yonah Weiss and @Julio GonzalezSome of the Bigger Pockets experts who offer Solo 401k administrator services are @Dmitriy Fomichenko, again @Bernard Reisz and @Brian EastmanReach out to them and see if they can help.

I think anything held over ten years for the most part, if bought even decently, should turn around, but too few investors are an top of their declining investments. 29 separate doors is a lot to manage.

We could have held off for a higher offer as the market stayed strong.

Oil prices remain a huge X factor, and housing prices (at least with respect to rents) are being held back by the most supply EVER being built and coming online here in 2024.

Held for 8 years and make a small amount.

We met ALL of the criteria for our private money lenders being 'Friends & Family' and they all have agreed to receive email communications from us.

You'll probably want to look into having your assets held in a living trust or some other kind of trust if wishing to avoid probate in California.As to your question about the mortgage, there's a federal law that the attorney might be referencing that generally protects transfers into a living trust from causing the need to refinance, but would need more details to discern.

.**** My current issue with the lender that I recently spoke with was that I had to have experience building a SFR on my own property and have sold or refinanced and held in order to be approved for the loan.

My late wife and I held joint interests in a piece of real estate in our separate individual self directed 401k accounts.
