Consider: - Can the property be sold as-is for a decent price in its current condition?

Anything prior to that day is just added to the cost basis when the property is placed in service (sold or rented).

I’m working with them now and it hasn’t been a full month and we got one home under contract and sold it the same day.

He sold his rental in Pasadena and wants in on my property which is more hands off.

Given most properties appreciated to the point the equity was above both the first and second, he mostly got paid in full when the owner sold or refinanced and made a ton of money off it.

She loved the fact that she could manage everything from her phone, but what realy sold her was the better interest rates.

The house is completely totaled and cannot be sold now, unless I dump in another 100k.

are there any tools or solutions you wish you had but don’t?

But at this point I am going to reduce it to 2 questions so I don't give you a headache. 1) if a property is being sold as is, is that an automatic disqualification?

It is complete now and was listed for sale on 10/01 for $259,900 which seemed about right based on recent sold comps.The first week it was listed we only had one showing, so we dropped the price to $249,900 on 10/07.
