As for other amenities, some crowd-pleasers that won't break the bank are coffee maker + starter pack of pods, basic workout equipment (yoga mat, resistance bands), phone charging stations by the beds, and basic kitchen essentials like olive oil, salt/pepper, coffee filters, etc.

A cost segregation study is a strategic tax planning tool that separates the assets that have a shorter useful life and can be depreciated over 5, 7 and 15 years from the residential rental property or nonresidential real property that are depreciated over 27.5 and 39 years, respectively.

I am an aspiring new real estate investor based in CT looking to use the power of real estate as a wealth building tool and income producing asset class.

What tools can we use to analyze the rental potential in other neighborhoods?

Sellers rarely mind the low deposit and extended closing period due to the nature of the property, or at least they can be made aware of the fact that their lot has issues that will take MY time and MY money to solve and then they come around.My terms on the flip are: Minimum 10K spread between purchase and flip value.  1-2K deposit upfront to hold the property for 7 days then the deposit becomes non-refundable after the 7th day and the buyer has the same amount of time that I originally negotiated with seller typically 8-12 months(its a purchase contract but because of contingencies its essentially an option).  

I second Transunion as a decent screening tool.

It is our goal to provide all the tools, resources, education & coaching any individual needs to learn how to build a sustainable investment portfolio to achieve financial independence & generational wealth through real estate investing.It should be noted, that while the Academy is not a requirement to invest with RTR, the individuals that do join the Academy are much more successful long term since they have spent time to clearly develop their own individual investment strategy & plan!

These people take your money then leave you without the primary tool you pay for.

@Drew SygitOh, I forgot to ask - any free tool recommendations for determining the various classes of neighborhoods in different regions?

I've seen it with my own eyes, my real estate ventures have hit the jackpot thanks to these tactics.Now, let's dive into boosting that revenue through clever fees and rebranding.Charging appropriate fees during the application and move-in process is essential.
