@Adam M.The cost for a real estate tax accountant will vary based on location, experience, education and other factors, just like any other professional.

It would depend on your income, location and price of the home. 

Selling the convenience of the location first and in such detail may lead some renters to assume that there is something not so great about the house itself since the sale in on the location. 

My ideal location is in the middle so I'm away from severe flood risk, but still 15-20 mins tops to downtown or the beach.  

It could, but you could screen this location with PriceLabs.co as they use both airbnb and hotel rates to create revenue forecasts.

A mass shooting occurred tonight on the street next to the street where the property is located, leaving nine people shot and one dead.

Can you share what city in which this property is located?

All of these spots are awesome locations to buy and set up as an STR (short term rental) use VRBO/AirBNB to triple your monthly NOI.If you need ay advice or want to talk REI or which locations are best feel free to reach out! 

It's also one of the farthest locations from the parks.

Check with some of the people that commented here about the specific location.
