Typically, a cost segregation study ranges from $5,000 to $15,000.

So, with $100,000, you could afford properties totaling $400,000 to $500,000 in value.Number of Properties: You could go for one property around $400,000 or split your funds across two or three properties in the $150,000 to $200,000 range.

@Alex Lickenbrock If your young family needs schools and you don't want to pay for private, you may want to consider the suburbs (and there is a range of school/suburb quality as well). 

Assembly Bill 1771, also known as the California Housing Speculation Act, aims to change real estate tax policy to discourage investors from quickly reselling properties like single-family homes.Under the proposed bill, an additional 25% tax would be imposed on the gain from the sale of a qualified asset (including homes) within three years of the previous sale.The tax reduction is dependent on the number of years passed since the initial purchase of the qualified asset, ranging from a 20% reduction for sales occurring between 3.01 to 4 years to a 100% reduction for sales occurring more than seven years after the initial purchase.The revenues generated by this tax increase would be deposited into the Speculation Recapture Community Reinvestment Fund, which aims to support affordable housing, local governments, schools, and infrastructure projects.The bill is introduced by Assembly Member Ward, and the proposed tax changes would take effect from January 1, 2023.Assembly Member Ward argues that short-term investors in the market, including fix and flip investors, contribute to rising housing prices, limiting opportunities for Californians to purchase homes.While the bill may discourage short-term speculative transactions, it is worth noting that California's tax laws still provide certain advantages for investors, including unlimited tax write-offs and depreciation benefits.The bill is subject to legislative approval, and Assembly Member Ward will speak publicly about the bill at the San Diego County Administration Center on a specified date.Please note that this is a simplified summary of the bill and its potential impact on fix and flip investors.

I am leaning towards purchasing a primary that would require light-medium rehab, in the $125-175k range, possibly with less than 20% DP.

No stock screenings, no work, set it and forget it, exposure to a broad range of good companies and different sectors of economy. 

There’s plenty of good books in the $10-25 range that can give you great information.

If the tenant can't afford it, he can look for another rental that is within his price range.

The Front Range market has a very pronounced seasonality to it: March-June is "selling season" when the bulk of the listings hit the market and all of the retail buyers are out hunting.

Lastly, Furnished Finder is known for providing tenant leads for travel nurses (about 40% of their travelers are nurses), but a broad range of professionals, relocations, students, and others use it too.I hope this is helpful to you, all the best!
