Was able to get a meeting with the seller and negotiated using evolving knowledge of construction and deal analysis in addition to discovering seller motivation through direct contact.

@Kerry Baird Love hearing about others taking advantage of cost segregation studies.

I’ve seen folks pivot their plans quickly if they discover one city has friendier permit processes than another.And yeah, the Phoenix area has some really down to earth investor meetups, from what I’ve heard, that can help you level up fast.What aspect of the business are you most excited to tackle first.. managing construction, or scouting out those under the radar leads?

It’s ideal to have them view the property after the inspection, so they can consider any issues discovered during the inspection in their bid.

I'm not sure if the contractors are trained to exacerbate every single problem or not.We recently discovered asbestos in the compound joint.

And the study

To answer your question: yes, large studies released by the bigger brokerages have shown Phoenix and other sunbelt markets showing overall rent declines.

To set the scene: A cost seg study breaks your property into two important categories:1250 "real" property aka the building, foundation and other long life assets.1245 property aka anything that can be accelerated such as 5, 7, or 15 year property like carpets, cabinets, or other site improvements.
