@Jacob HavlovickBigger Pockets is a great place to find a real estate tax accountant.A good real estate accountant can save you thousands of dollars by leveraging entity selection and formation, tax deductions, cost segregations, bonus depreciation and tax planning.I recommend finding an accountant who specializes in real estate taxation, business taxation, financial planning and tax planning.You may want to consider working with your accountant remotely to expand your options.I would also recommend looking for a accountant willing to work with you throughout the year.

It couldn't hurt to call a couple attorneys right away to see what they say in terms of cost and suggestions for dealing with this quickly.In terms of mitigating any legal issues with your tenant be sure you are documenting every conversation you have had with the HOA in terms of asking them to make the necessary repairs.

PS5, TV and two gamer chairs is about the same cost or less than an arcade unitThis is true and that is why I have Xbox in my cabins.  

Implementing water-saving initiatives is a smart way to reduce utility costs.

The Retainer Fee is credited towards whatever they buy from us in the 90 days, so in effect, costs them nothing.Note: we're not doing this to make money, but to avoid the time-wasters.

Real estate is not the stock market and it's called buy & hold and not buy & sell for a reason.I did sell a few properties about 10 years ago when I learned the hard way that going into cheaper neighborhoods was not the right strategy for me, so that was basically a strategy correction and it was necessary, but also costly both in terms of dollars and time.

Also, what are some other low cost amenities that I can add to my STR that will yield a higher ROI?

@Sebastian NadalI've used Zillow Rental Manager to screen my tenants and have found it effective.

Did you use 1.1% of ADU cost for prop tax?
