Sounds like you definitely need to work with an attorney."

@Dirk SingletonIf you are looking in Cleveland I would recommend checking out areas on the West Side of Cleveland like West Blvd, Cudell, Old Brooklyn, Clark Fulton, Edgewater, Jefferson, and Brooklyn Centre.

You'll also find some clients that like to juice the commission on performance metrics, similar to what you posted, but that is also relatively rare as most owners feel if they're paying you north of $300,000, you should just try to get top dollar with strong terms.

Verifying last 2 years of rental history and income extremely important to find the “best of the worst”.Make sure you understand the Class of properties you are looking at and the corresponding results to expect.The City of Detroit has 183 Neighborhoods we’ve analyzed.PM us if you’d like to discuss this logical approach in greater detail!

Hey Jason,I feel your pain, it's like déjà vu.

What would a taxation model look like in this scenario?

Those are likely warrantable condos.

I have a close buddy who lives in LA, I would likely trust his judgement if it came down to it - but I would still get to know the area more.I dont think you are ready to invest out of state if you havent invested yet in yours.

For example, you can write something like:"Spoke with GC for 1 hour regarding renovations for STR property, discussed scope of work, timeline, and cost estimates." 

It sounds like your tax professional would have grouped these actvlivities based on the situation you are describing.
