@Sebby Gabre Madhin Also, one advantage to small towns is that very little advertising is needed, word of mouth moves quickly in a small town :)Good to know about the capital gains, I thought I had read that it was capital gains when you sell a flip and inventory when you buy a flip, but I probably misunderstood.

I was just looking on Airbnb the other day and noticed several Big Bear listings still have self check in keypads advertised.

How do I advertise and find a buyer?

Next, you can advertise a home for sale yourself as a "test ad".

We are supposed to close at the end of May, if the property meets all the contingencies of the offer... one of which was zoning.The property was advertised (and is fully rented out) as a 4-unit.

And you have to honor what you advertise, you might actually lose money on that 1 in 100, but make up for it with the business you brought in the door the other 99 times. 

(And on a side note, this usually results in some level of deferred maintenance, since there is no time for "routine turnover maintenance").There are obviously differing schools of thought here, but as an experienced property manager, I actually dislike advertising units for rent before the current tenant vacates, for a few reasons:1.

Advertising via the web has been the most effective for me .
