Additionally, the supply of homes for sale is constrained because of this and will be for some time putting upward pressure on prices in most markets.Thinking about renting your house in Seattle would be wise as someone else will pay the mortgage down, and rents and the value of the property will go up over time.

@Kleyn LopezI have referrals in the San Diego area if you are in need of additional CPA recommendations.

Additionally, those forced to relocate due to the fires should update their address with the IRS to ensure they continue to receive relevant communications.

Feel free to share updates or ask additional questions.

Determine the most likely sales price of the build (factor in the cost of the land also) and include all selling costs to arrive at your net profit and ROI. 

If you currently rent for $2,500 and take the $1,750; you have additional positive cash flow of $750 for your rent situation.Have you thoroughly looked over the capex potential issues? 

I would definitely factor in some substantial capex/ maintenance and repair costs which could lower your returns.  

.- Logically, there really is no additional security provided with both keyed doorknob & deadbolt, but a deadbolt is more secure than a keyed doorknob.- Since you need a key to lock a deadbolt when you leave the premises, tenant's can't lock their key(s) in the home and then pester us to come let them back in.--- Tenants can still lose their keys outside their home:(

So I disputed the additional charge. 

@Damon AlbersI hate the alphabet rating system because it is such an arbitrary thing that boils down many important factors to one letter.
