It's generally a good idea to keep rental income and expenses separate from your personal finances.

I recognize that I will benefit greatly from the value offered by experienced agents and contractors.

From CSLB:This section defines what an owner-builder is and the laws surrounding the practice.An owner-builder is what the term indicates: a person owns the property and acts as their own general contractor on the job, and either does the work themselves or has employees (or subcontractors) working on the project.The work site must be their principal place of residence that they have occupied for 12 months prior to completion of the work.The homeowner cannot construct and then sell more than two structures during any three-year period.Getting a GC license and going Legit is pretty difficult.

I’m looking for Net and occupancy for 2023.The unit I have a contract on was mostly used for personal use, I’m looking for rental numbers…. and sellers aren’t willing to give these up.

I have sympathy for that person.

ANYONE Experiencing THIS SAME situation -We may see MORE of these moving forward in the Inflactin dirven Bidenomics Paycheck to Paycheck Economy This property is CA - Estimated ARV $525K to $550K +/- 1st lien was modified several times (TWICE) to TRY to keep the Debtors in their house.

I think I'm a bit of an oddity in that I've been researching personal finance and real estate for years (still nowhere near an expert), but have never taken the step to reach out on forums to like-minded peers.

@Deonte HillI think using one general contractor is best for most people, unless you are experienced in some aspects of contracting and have the time to manage people. 

@Dav Pohote The last property I sold had 1 person make an offer at the list price.
