Hey BiggerPockets Community,If you're a real estate investor or developer eyeing opportunities in Los Angeles, SB-9 (the California HOME Act) could be a game-changer for your strategy.

PM here - happy to help the BP community with rental analysis, leasing trends etc should you need anything from me - Northern VA and DC.

While the taxes on the listing may seem reasonable if it turns out they’re 300% more than they were two years ago just because the community has increased its spending this is a trend that will quickly make your cash flow evaporate.

@Jacob CampbellHi Jacob, and welcome to the community. 

Hi Jon from Boyertown, PA-You and your fiancé are interested in buying your first short-term rental and wonder profitable areas to purchase with a budget up to $500,000.I would look at places along the west coast of Michigan, Grand Rapids, Kalamazoo, and near Ann Arbor, MI.It is important to understand the local STR regulations in each community and partner with a property management company that can help your navigate that and manage it well for an excellent guest experience.Don't forget to look into bonus depreciation and doing a cost segregation study to increase the tax benefits of ownership and if you "materially participate" in the management of the property per IRS guidelines it can offset active W-2 income which most real estate cannot.To Your Success!
