I am hoping to find a reasonably priced photographer to take some sharp  photos of a Property. 

I’m debating whether to furnish the shared areas or just stage them for photos and viewings.

Make sure your photos are professional, your description is engaging, and you’ve set competitive prices based on your local market.

Hard to say which way this could go, just keep good notes, records and photos, dates, times etc… maybe this could possibly go under their previous policy?

In my opinion, in many cases it’s better to invest in a property that costs less and is a bit under decorated - then hire a really good decorator to upgrade at least a few rooms for the unique,  “wow” moment in photos.

Are their listings detailed with good-quality photos?

If the answer to the last question is yes, I think it'll be a hard choice.I see a reasonable appreciation rate for underwriting at about 6% based on neighborhood scout, so nominally I think you'll make 10-11% if you had paid cash which means I think you'll do quite well holding on (20% returns or so). 

I doubt 10% of the GRM will equal enough to where an S filing status makes sense.The home office and such is nominal so that alone isn’t worth doing this.
