Should I be looking for a REI tax preparer/cpa that states on their website they have experience with this? 

They get contacted by someone who offers to buy their property, in cash, and close quickly.Elderly person signs, prepares to move, and later discovers that the person who bought their house turned around and sold it for hundreds of thousands of dollars more than they paid for it - with no work done.

It was that 1% test that was throwing me for a loop.

In most places they provide free "coaching" as long as you go into a meeting with the city prepared with specific questions and proof that you have at least tried to research and educate yourself on the situation.

When I need a blood test and have to fast for 8 hours, before the following morning, I am a very miserable person without my morning cup of up of coffee loaded with sugar.This is not a dating forum.

Try to trip it (hit the test button) and then reset it. 

When it comes to a PPM, working directly with a syndication attorney who can prepare the appropriate docs for you is really the best way to go.

That gets prospects mentally prepared to see the higher rent amount.

But it would be interesting to hear how the tax preparers are treating situations such as this.

If you decide to sell, I wouldn't make any decisions about repairs until you are closer to that time to evaluate the current condition of the market and the house to stress test what is needed.
