This is typically called a BOR.Sounds like your management company effectively changed your BOR, blocking your broker from being able to help you.

If you skip using a new loan, you avoid the costs of origination and high interest rates, It works well for our clients in Phoenix and in CA. 

In reality, "cash flow" areas to me are high turn over, higher turnover cost, and higher Capex, which all equates to the more risk for less return.  

Your gain / income on the sale would beSales price less cost to purchase the lane, less the cost to build the property, less improvements less costs to sell plus the depreciation taken on the property.Whether the gain is ordinary or capital will depend on whether you are classified as a dealer.

I am looking for a platform that is cost effective, but allows me to track all the essentials, give owners access, and ease of accounting.

Specifically, I am looking to track the projected rehab cost of each unit, cash flow from rented units, first lien costs, general partners and limited partner returns.

LOVE this software for the flexibility and cost - inexpensive set up and monthly costs by comparison to others like Liquid Logics and the Mortgage Office.

Keep in mind, taxes and insurance costs in California are higher than a lot of areas.

One area that has caught my attention is the Pigeon Forge/Gatlinburg TN area - seems like there is a good rental income to acquisition cost ratio.  

@Yu Xiao, using that property as a short term rental during the time you own it will open up some additional tax saving potential as will doing a cost segregation study to take advantage of some accelerated depreciation.
