@Alexandra Hughes Pailet - Can you please help Nathan get set up to Attend BPCON? 

I used a software named LandVision/Lightbox that helps me a lot.

There are likely more investors that will want the cash flow as a landlord, so in that case selling with some tenants, but also room for the investor to finish lease up to help their overall return would be beneficial.Back to my opening statement, investment sales brokers would be able to give you better guidance.

Here on the Oregon Coast, I would attest to that accuracy based on the review of hundreds of financial statements for active oregon coast vacation rentals and the performance of nearly two dozen STR investors and operators we've helped acquire properties within the past three years. 

This will help you justify the deduction if ever needed.

Really just looking for like minded people who aren't into gate keeping and don't mind lending a helping hand to a total beginner!

This helps determine the appropriate asset allocation.

This won't help you.

Both of them can help guide you through the process because either way you will likely need to prepare architectural plans to get submitted to the city.When you are ready for the renovation, let us know and we can surely be a resource for you in that department.

Hope this helps but don't let it freak you out.
