Appreciation is just an icing on the cake type of thing for me.

I live in Southern California (Anaheim) any recommendations/ referrals are welcomed.

These days, selling is a piece of cake, but now it's the buy-side that's tough.As I say in the book, that's the way this industry works -- at any given time, it's likely easy to either buy or sell. 

We look for failed burned out landlord investors that went into the business thinking it was a piece of cake.

Oh boy was this one a cake walk from start to finish.

For loan purposes, my cash flow numbers have regular rental assumptions, STR cash flow is icing on the cake for me, of course in Nola it can be a whole lot of icing, so it's part of my approach at this point.

My overall main goal was to increase my liquid cash in the end but if I can have my cake and eat it too ( how ever they say) I definitely wouldOn the rent numbers I can pull 1400 for it on a 1150 mortgage no problem

Others on this site only look at CoC and ignore appreciation, treating it as icing on the cake down the road.
