Both are just jobs, not RE investing. 

I recently moved back to the Pacific Northwest near Vancouver and am hoping to begin here.

The person who found the deal, future partner, found it off market, turnkey, under market rents.

The roof and attic are the best parts of the house, 0 problems.Main line, laundry line, kitchen line are actively leaking.

-Have enough room in the back of the lot to add a new duplex (zoned appropriately, etc).

The house still appraised for over sale price but I was wondering if this could be used as a negotiation moment or am I SOL? 

Here's a framework that you should know for tax planning:The further you can push your taxes out, the smaller they become.The time value of money shows us that a dollar is worth more today than 20 years from now.Planning is used to kick the can down the road, and make sure there will be available cash to pay the tax!

One thing I always tell people who are house hacking: The more uncomfortable you're willing to live, the better the numbers will be.

Since I personally always get the most out of conferences when I have dedicated time after to decompress, digest, and implement what I've learned, I booked a private beachfront villa with some friends for a few days immediately following BPCON (checking in the afternoon of Wednesday the 9th, checking out the morning of the 12th) just a few miles up the beach from the Moon Palace Resort, and we have a couple of beds still available so I wanted to extend the invite to folks here.A couple photos of the villa are below, and some of my favorite features of this place include:- Direct beach access off the back porch- Private heated infinity pool- Private furnished terrace- Private resort access- Wifi- Indoor jacuzzis- Private kitchen- Air conditioningShoot me a DM if you're interested!

How do you work on the terms with your preferred realtor?
