I've been in the area doing real estate for the last 24 years, and investing for the last 10. 

It appraised last week for $388k.

It is quite an undertaking, processes will be long and unforeseen costs could pop up.

As I just bought my first property last month and this will be the second I plan to do cost segregation on both but I won't have enough passive income from RE this year for those deductions to matter I don't believe. 

I bought the concierge service thru carrot last year.

The main issue is that in Sandbridge, there are a couple of management companies that have their own booking sites, since Sandbridge has been a vacation rental spot for a very long time, well, before Airbnb was a thing.

Owning a house together is like a long-term business partnership, so make sure you have a clear exit strategy in writing.

The prices can very wildly that is for sure, but I last saw this cost around 12k. 

because if In New Jersey I can get 18% interest rates the redemption period is 2 years which for someone could be a long time their money is locked.

Appreciation being speculative has been a long-standing narrative.
