Keep going though, being young you have time to build a beautiful thing in RE

Sometimes it makes sense to sell if the numbers don't make sense to keep it, there is better use of the equity, etc.Alternatively, could you do the cash out refi and build an ADU?

Regular maintenance, upkeep of lawn, exterior of the building as per HoA covenants.

Hi All,We are evaluating 4-unit building in Auburn, CA.

To determine a realistic and justifiable ARV for this property with a 4,000 sq. ft. luxury home, I analyzed comparable sales close by in Jamestown, RI, focusing on price per square foot and property characteristics.Step 1: Identifying Comparable SalesI selected six high-end waterfront properties in Jamestown that share similar lot sizes, locations, and luxury build quality.

Building components:Most SPF lumber comes from Canada.Most of our copper for wiring comes from Mexico.Most of our metal fixtures come from China.Tariffs and economic wars.  

If I purchase a building with rent-stabilized tenants, are there any legal ways to de-stabilize the units, especially after doing significant renovations or rehabbing the property?

I suggest you start with developers in your local area (your county and neighboring counties level) because they would be your most likely partner or parcel buyer. 

.- One master key opens every door- We go 3 levels under our master, so we can submaster 2-4 unit houses and apartment buildings- Don't need a costly and difficult to secure & track keybox.

Fortunately for me, I started investing a time in the market where everything went up.
