@Vidit Maini Until you are an ESTABLISHED business I would recommend just keeping track of your mileage for deduction as opposed to spending the extra money to buy a “company vehicle”.

The reality is the opposite - if it's not in writing then the PMC doesn't have to provide the service or can charge extra for it!

That neighborhood has not seen much of an improvement over the last 10 years..If an agent is selling a property and calls it a C neighborhood in the back of my head I always wonder if they are looking at it through rose-colored glasses.

Otherwise, they have to eat the extra expense just like homeowners do.I would talk to an attorney and your insurance company.

Although insulating the floor is a nice extra, it is not the primary way that cold gets into the house.

Think about all the extra time trouble and cost it takes to turn an ordinary house into a vacation rental...just my two cents though...

I also agree that RE appreciation is unlikely to match the last dozen years, but you never know.Where I am unsure we agree is that paying $450k to improve the cash flow ~$3k (your numbers but I expect my delta wold be similar meaning both my cash flow estimates would be worse than yours but both would be worse by the same amount not affecting the difference) makes sense especially if the cost of having the extra $450k is only 6% rate which is historically simple to beat via numerous investment options and hopefully no one is investing in RE for an expected of 6%.
