For residential multifamily properties (1 - 4 units), can you use a home warranty to take care of the repair costs associated with rentals?

My duplex - built 1989, 2,060 sf, 2 bed/bath, 1 year old roof, value if I subdivide (county already approved) and sell each separately $150k each ($300k total)Investor duplex - built 1995, 2,300 sf, 2 bed/bath, 5 year old roof, value around $310kThe investors initial request was for an equal trade and they would pay realtor fees, which I replied wouldn't be equal due to buying/selling costs (recording fees, title insurance, closing fee, survey, inspections, loan fees, 1031 fees, accountant fees, repairs), taxes would increase due to new sale price, I'd trade a 3.75% mortgage for a higher one, and I'm on the 10th year of a 30 year loan so resetting that to a new loan would restart amortization and pay more towards interest.

If the RV is not permanently affixed and retains mobility, it is considered personal property and depreciated over 5 years under the Modified Accelerated Cost Recovery System (MACRS).

The cost is really expensive for QBO.

While metrics like square footage or price per square foot matter, the number of bedrooms, bathrooms, and overall location are often more critical for attracting tenants.Engaging a property manager early on can save you from costly mistakes and help you invest in properties that perform well in the rental market.

I have a two questions with regards to a 1031 exchangeThe first one is if I were to sell a property for 500,000 its paid off can I buy 3 new properties that cost 200 thousand each or does it need to be one property greater than 500,000?   

No management costs?

It's pretty wild to me that CA properties HAVE to have solar and EV chargers...Adds so much cost. 

However, I still struggle to understand the art of estimating rehab costs. 

Because of cost, duplexes are are a better choice and compete well with SFH and or apartments. 4.
