Updated subject: Damages after inherited tenants move outHi Folks,I bought a home a few months ago and the tenants I inherited are now moving out.

I am specifically reaching out to home flippers in the Bay Area.

Here's a few tips that I've learned along the way:- Invest in automations and technology.

Thanks for the tips Eric, super insightful and will definitely implement.

Any other tip for this newbie in the REI world?

The house is a high ranch single-family home with three bedrooms, a bathroom, living room, and dining room on the first floor, and a finished basement that has a full bathroom, bedroom, and common area.

The way I understand it, you can own another home and still qualify for Fannie Mae's 5% down payment option for multifamily properties, provided you meet certain conditions.

No mortgage paid= they lose their home.

Has anyone found lenders (preferably credit unions or small local banks) that do HELOCs on investment properties, or are okay with a tax return that shows income generated occasionally on a 2nd home?

ADUs or carriage houses are well supported in adjacent downtown neighborhoods but no one is building and selling new construction homes the comparable will be very limited. the appraisal will be difficult. it's just a lot.
