I'm a realtor and I usually see the MLS I don't have experience as an investor.

Hi BP,Just wanted to get thoughts on different heating options.I need to install a new heating system in one of my apartment units (approx 580 sqft) but wanted to get thoughts on whether an Electric Wall Heater was a good option?

Hello all, I'm curious how much the HUD will actually pay compared to the 40th percentile rents posted on their site.I'm aware of the different amounts each tenant will cover in terms of their portion of the rent, but I'm not sure if the HUD will actually agree to my rent price.I've been taking the stated FMR for the bedroom count, and taking 20% off the number stated (to be conservative as to what the HUD will accept).

There are new laws affecting California transactions in 2024, some of which are very relevant to investors and house flippers.According to the California Association of Realtors, starting July 1, 2024 most 1-4 unit properties that are resold within 18 months (aka flips) must disclose:- repairs, renovations, room additions and structural modifications that were performed by a contractor with whom the seller entered into a contract- the name and any contact info for the contractor for any work over $500- any permits obtainedSo you still can be an HGTV star, just make sure you do it by the book. :)Have any of you flipping in the Los Angeles area been affected by these new disclosures?

If the answer is the latter, is it possible I would lose the money I think I would save by missing deals while trying to learn and upgrade my site myself? 

Your residents would benefit with better gym access on the road, the gym would get a little more revenue each month; and you can advertise the benefit without sacrificing square footage.Thanks, and best of luck.
