Hello everyone,I recently purchased my first house and am seeking advice on a potential flooring dilemma.

Seek for condominiums with comparable renovations and evaluate the impact these upgrades have had on the selling prices of those properties.Rental Demand: While renovations might increase a condo's appeal to prospective tenants, especially in the Section 8 leasing market, it's important to assess if the cost of the improvements can be recovered by the anticipated rental revenue.

I recommend seeking out a mentor prior to joining a brokerage if you can.

Hello, I am seeking expert advice on any (dis)advantages between two scenarios.Context: I am a full-time employee who works from home, I do not report to an office.My employer (HQ in Portland, OR) employs hundreds of employees who are either 'remote' or have assigned 'desk locations' throughout the country. 

I do not get any special treatment or preferential deal flow by working for the company.

What guidance or strategies should a first-time investor seek when searching for a lucrative home investment?

Seek out single-family or multifamily homes with space for conversion, extra living quarters, or rental apartments.

IRS guidelines would require you to seek out a tax professional but i believe you are taxed on gifts above $14k.

What type of financing in particular are you seeking?

If you're ever unsure about the fee you're paying now, I would encourage you to seek out a few different CPAs to get quotes from them to see if you could be paying less elsewhere, or confirm that you're already at/near a good value.
