If your retirement and investing goals are basic, a regular CPA should be sufficient. 

Not worried about it, and the FDIC is there if something goes bad. in actually a little worried for you, if you have millions in rent collection per month, so you have sufficient FDIC coverage?

Seems like there's a big range depending on who you ask. 

One reason for the declining sales volume is the mismatch between pricing expectations as builders deliver new pre-leased offerings.Smaller exchange buyers might be willing to accept going-in yields below short-term treasuries and up to the 6% range, but larger investors need to adjust to a higher cost of capital.

Not to be left behind, institutional and public REIT investors persist in their pace of acquisitions, homing in on first-class developments and prime locations.Yields on stabilized industrial investments continue to price in a tight range over treasuries, which began falling in the fourth quarter due to slowing economic growth and the market's expectations of rate cuts beginning in the first half of 2024.Properties offering in-place rents substantially below market can still see cap rates in the upper 4% range, but a growing portion now trades in the low 5% spectrum.

More commonly, 4-star properties have seen as much as 200- 250 basis points of expansion.This range of cap rates is generally found in the upper 7% to 9% territory, indicating that office property values for transactions over $10 million are down by roughly 35% from the all-time high in 2021, excluding medical and owner-user sales.Debt maturities pose challenges for 2024, with around $206 billion in office loans maturing this year and another $180 billion in 2025 and 2026 combined.

Won't work for this one due to looking (slightly) outside of my original price range and the amount of upfront work needed.

I’m more concerned with wealth than cash flow at the moment with 0% down, but my biggest fear is not having the flexibility to continue my stack or get out if needed.I’ve ran the numbers as if I was getting current rents at 4.25%, BP suggested market rents at 5.25% in the second year, and the upper range of current market rents at the 6.25% which would kick in year 3.

I've been looking at 2bedrooms in the R500k-R1.5m range, preferably close to Sandton.Thanks!

Currently, cap rates for many 4 & 5 Star assets fluctuate in the mid-5% range, while 3-Star assets have broadly climbed toward 6%.
