I am happy to make a personal introduction if interested, DM me.

Perhaps you can arbitrate, but you will want to be careful getting too involved in a personal dispute.

When banks (and MHP investors) look at the value of a mobile home park, they will not count the income generated from the mobile homes themselves as mobile homes are considered personal property. 

If you are an individual that had a property loss (including personal property) then use the first link for FEMA.The second link is for business owners…and yes, this includes those of us that have rental properties.

I'm invested in a property near the Grove that's executing that business plan now.At a simpler level, that might mean buying a house with a garage, converting the garage into an ADU, and renting out the ADU.I think a super solid first step to get into the LA market is to househack a home or a multifamily.

Before diving in, I'm focused on building a solid knowledge base and seeking advice from experienced investors like you.

A smooth finish is usually only requested if a homeowner is planning on wallpapering, but that's a whole other discussion.I personally like the modern types of texture, but I think it really depends on the other finishes in the home.

I just don't like the idea of letting this amount sit in the bank and at the same time I don't want to mingle it with personal brokerage account.Any suggestions or creative ideas?

Currently, I am using my personal checking account to collect rentals.

Converting your single-family home into a rental property involves several considerations to protect yourself and ensure smooth operations: Establish an LLC:Liability Protection: Holding the rental property in an LLC can protect your personal assets from potential lawsuits related to the property.Tax Benefits: An LLC can offer tax advantages, such as pass-through taxation, where rental income is taxed at your individual income tax rate.Insurance:Landlord Insurance: Ensures coverage for property damage, liability claims, and loss of rental income.Umbrella Policy: Provides additional liability coverage beyond your landlord insurance, offering extra protection.Deductions:Mortgage Interest and Property Taxes: Continue to deduct these expenses.Depreciation: Depreciate the cost of the property over 27.5 years, excluding the land value.Maintenance and Repairs: Deduct costs related to maintaining the property.Property Management Fees: Deduct fees paid to the property manager.Filing Taxes:Schedule E: Report rental income and expenses on Schedule E of your tax return.Separate Accounts: Maintain separate bank accounts for rental income and expenses to simplify bookkeeping.Lease Agreement:Solid Lease Terms: Ensure your lease agreement is thorough, covering rent amount, due date, late fees, maintenance responsibilities, and eviction terms.Legal Review: Have the lease agreement reviewed by a real estate attorney to ensure compliance with local laws.Tenant Screening:Background Checks: Perform credit, criminal, and eviction history checks on prospective tenants.References: Contact previous landlords and employers for references.Property Management:Regular Inspections: Schedule regular property inspections to ensure it's being maintained properly.Maintenance Fund: Set aside a reserve fund for unexpected repairs and maintenance.Moving Out of State:Communication: Maintain open communication with your property manager.
