Either way I recommend listening to all the episodes of Glen Sutherland’s podcast “A Canadian investing in the US”Hey Zorya!

@Matthew McleanBigger Pockets is a great place to find an accountant specializing in real estate taxation.A good real estate accountant can save you thousands of dollars by leveraging entity selection and formation, tax deductions, cost segregations, bonus depreciation and tax planning.I recommend finding an accountant specializing in real estate taxation, business taxation, financial planning and tax planning.Consider working with your accountant remotely to expand your options.I would also recommend looking for an accountant willing to work with you throughout the year.

BiggerPockets also has a calculator to analyze deals, and I highly recommend you start this as soon as possible, even if you are not ready to buy.

@Hunter Duplantis what @Gino Barbaro said is exactly what I was going to suggest.When you have vacancy is the time to experiment and apply your original thesis.I’m not trying to play Monday quarterback here but, you should be highly confident in where the rents should be well in advance of having a vacancy.That being said, after confirming competition rents on websites (I’d also recommend Craigslist and Facebook marketplace), you should be in alignment there.  

I like the other recommendations, give them a seller financing offer that is their asking and a good interest rate with terms that make sense for you, and offer what the bank will let you offer.

Quote from @Tyler Garza: I got CF by NOI - Mortgage = CF , Mortgage is 240k @ 7% = 16,800/yrWhat do you recommend to allocate for vacancy and op expenses?

I cannot recommend RTR enough, they are the best!! 

Did you work with any real estate professionals (agents, lenders, etc.) that you'd recommend to others?
