You are required to file a complete and accurate return, which means reporting the income that you earned along with atleast the direct expenses that you incurred on your rental.There are two comflicting forces - Your tax accountant wants to be aggressive with deductions because it will entitle you to paying less taxes(now or in the future).Your lender wants to see as much income as that will increase your Debt to Income Ratio(DTI).The good thing is that you can speak with your lender about 'one time expenses', that were only incurred in that year and are not reoccuring. 

Does anyone have a recommendation for a lender that values ADU's in CA "accurately"?  

A lot of the data you are looking at in terms of what homes rent for down here are not accurate btw.

The key is to accurately reflect the type of income/expenses and the timing of everything.

I personally recommend working with a CPA who prioritizes integrity and accurate tax return filings, so that if you're ever audited, you won’t face back taxes, penalties, or interest.

Depending on their financing scheme , most of them needs debt restructurization after year 4 or 5 which means LP losing money.everyone buying with sub cap 4 , they have to exit , banks want the money , they want exit with cap 4.5 ; buyer like us is asking for 5 cap.The only way they can survive is by the fed cutting rate next year or there is massive debt refinancing deals given by the banksThat's not correct at all, I get where your coming from and for the "novices" it's almost certainly true, but not remotely accurate for the professional, proficient syndicators. 

For instance, a worksheet calculator that you can depend on for accurate rehab numbers, a coach or mentor that has experience wholesaling whose brain you can pick, a curious, principled solution-based mindset, willingness to find sellers that are NOT on the market, and for good measure -- steal underpants!
