When negotiating, did the renovation credits decrease your final purchase price and your monthly payment terms?

Quote from @Kevin Sobilo: I plan to find a couple of comparable properties with different zoning to demonstrate how zoning increases/decreases value.

That can decrease your buying pool.As a flipper, your ideal buyer should be somebody represented by an agent buying your home.

Just make sure you collect more data before making a decision.Thank you for the feedback,They actually decreased the rent from from 1150 to 1125 in the last month.

Our insurance did not cover moving the tenants out along with their temporary housing.

Californians population has been decreasing slightly, CA lost a seat in congress.

In general medical professionals are looking for smaller units (studio/1 bedrooms) not 2+ bedrooms- In order to understand corporate demand you should research the types of corporations in the market and figure out if they bring traveling / temporary workers to the area because not all corporations do- You didn't mention colleges but if there's higher education nearby this can also be a driver of MTR demand.

So in essence unless your going to fight (and pay) for a fair return against a fascist Oakland rent administrators - your profits will slowly decrease.

They're paid by the job and if their performance ever decreases (which can happen - they're great for a time and eventually for whatever reason their quality, timeliness, etc declines) then it's easier to phase them out & replace them with a different crew. 

Once you find somebody that is capable of representing you the right way in these scenarios, you will not only make more money but you dramatically decrease your chances of hiccups throughout the process.
