The analysis will not be based on costs but rather on market's reaction based on the principle of substitution (what potential buyers would pay for homes in similar condition).The details of how much work you put in the property are somewhat irrelevant.

When put in this simple way, it appears that you would be acting as a real estate agent that doesn't have a license.If you have a licensed real estate agent help you, there are still challenges.

The final main thing you could consider is a new office location place that is convenient and has minimal distractions.  

I've put in 4 offers on multifamilies this year with an FHA loan and have had 1 accepted.

Don't have much experience, but willing to put in some work and share knowledge if you're interested in the Central Coast.

Hello,I have a tenant that is signing another one year lease and is thinking about buying my property during this time frame.He would like me to put in the rental contract that he would be able to get out of the lease early, if he purchases the property.What would be the best way to word something like that or does it come with too many legal down falls?

You could put a copy of that letter will make a copy of that and submit that with your offers.A final thing I will mention here is to find a location for your office that is convenient and has a minimum of distractions.  

You can also choose to include the costs in the basis of the property purchased.This can also be the case when moving into a new asset class, like SFR to Commercial Property, even if it's in the same geographic area.If you move quickly - ie, travel to an area and put in an offer and close on a property in quick succession, you can make a case for deducting as an expense right away, but there are several grey areas involved in this.So keep track of all your expenses.  

You can locate that office in your "living" place if you can close it off and have minimal distractions, especially personal ones.  

You make no further contributions to that account, and you withdraw it tax-free in 30 years.A friend calls you up with an unusual proposal: you put in the $20,000 as the down payment on a $100,000 rental property; he'll keep any cash flow, but you get to keep 100% of the proceeds when you sell the property in 30 years.
