I’m starting out and I’d like to know how would you go about doing an inspection on a potential deal to calculate rehab costs if the property doesn’t have any services turned on?

From my research, a well themed unit can easily bring twice the nightly rent of a lower end, same size house and the occupancy is higher as well. 

For example, you could find deals that have good long-term potential and buy enough money down so they throw off a bit of cashflow, but not so much equity that it limits your ability to scale.

Examining variables like rental demand, vacancy rates, property prices, and economic indicators, however, requires in-depth market research.

Considering the local anti landlord laws what would be the best way to handle this to avoid any potential issues from the legal perspective?

I understand the potential value to convert but would like to use an outstanding calculator to actually show the value of different conversion options and investment percentages.  

Look at all your options and research what type of real estate investing is the best option for you.

I am interested in Wholesaling, House Hacking, Buying & Holding Rentals and beyond.My local market is Los Angeles/Southern California and I am actively researching markets in all 50 states.

Once my house is fixed it is going to cause an issue for my neighbors house and potentially the next house after that.I am hoping that they will realize that this impacts the entire block and not just my house...
