Thank you so much, Luo It’s likely pulling data from Santa Barbara County, which includes north county like Santa Maria, Lompoc, orcutt etc

At the moment, I have an STR in the Berkshires and have considered other investments including multifamily.

I personally use Stessa (included free with your pro/business account) and Monarch.

@Francisco Pineiro To protect yourself when working with contractors:1.Start with a Clear Scope of Work (SOW): Ensure every detail of the project is outlined in writing, including materials, timelines, and deliverables.2.Use Milestone Payments: For a $40K rehab, consider this structure: 10% upfront, 30% at halfway completion, 30% at 75%, and the remaining 30% upon full completion.

@Bryan Cavellier, You can 1031 with any US property including Guam, the USVI and ...drum roll- The Northern Marianas Islands (go figure but I actually had a realtor from there in a class of mine recently) into any other US or one of those territories.  1031 is a federal statute so it's applied the same in all locals with just a few variations state to state at the state level. 

We have an STR in Swannanoa that wasn't damaged and have had several week+ long bookings since the storm (including Army Corps of Engineers, etc). 

Data Analysis: AI can process copious amounts of data, including market trends, property values, neighborhood demographics and economic indicators.

When working with private lenders, the costs for preparing loan documents can vary based on a few factors, including the complexity of the loan, the attorney’s experience, and the geographic location.

Is there any evidence or support I can include to make my letter of intent more credible?
