You'll see some familiar names thrown around a lot: Stessa, Apartments.com, RentRedi, TenantCloud, Innago, RentManager, Avail, Rentec Direct, Doorloop, etc.I think you should search for each app online and see what they offer, how much they charge, etc.

Depreciation can be applied not only to the property but also to fixtures, such as air conditioners, so if those fixtures are also new, the tax savings can be even greater.On the other hand, used property does not provide the same tax savings as new property because many years have passed since it was built, so it's useful life may be less, or in some cases, almost zero.

This has led me to search for firms specializing in the niche area of cost segregation for lower value rental properties, and what I found was firms who are using internally developed software which allows for such cost/engineering data to applied to basic parameters of a specific rental property to come up with a lite cost segregation report for lower value properties (depreciable basis >$500k).  

Finally, I use the monthly % discount to then make the OTA payout  equal to my direct booking payout.

Sarah, I am a small local direct lender in the Houston area.

🗺️Where to find off-market properties:- InvestorLift and any other wholesale aggregator- Make connections with local wholesalers at REI meetups or on Bigger Pockets- Most investor-focused brokers are plugged in with wholesalers and do their own monthly direct-mail campaigns and cold-calling.

If this property can cash flow and pull the money you invested out (or at least the large majority of it) I would lean in that direction.
