I'm sure this is a typical case study for a total beginner, I don't really know what I'm doing. 

Does anyone have experience with cost segregation studies for foreign STRs?

While my wife was studying to pass her RE exam I was studying and learning as well.

You're definitely in the right place for that support.If and when you’re considering a cost segregation study, as Jonathan mentioned, don’t hesitate to reach out; I’d be more than happy to share insights on that topic.

This is a case study of what to avoid if you decide to go down this road.Bringing this back to my initial comments, has this particular seller articulated his/her motivation?
