Get an executed current roll to look at your income.

Keep pushing

When assessments come up you have paid X% less for the house in the eyes of the assessor.Example: Expecting to pay 200KOffer: 188K and buyer pays agent commissions.Assessor when figuring out rolls: Oh the house sold for 188KObviously only works with cash as if you are financing you most likely don't have the extra to bring to closing, but it could work if you had a chunk.

Hi @Shafi Noss,I'm not a CPA, but my understanding is the appreciation realized on sale of a property are capital gains that are passed through to the LPs and subject to the same capital gains treatment as stock sale gains (as an example).One other thing to keep in mind is that any depreciation realized during the investment (including the accelerated depreciation we all love so much) is deferred, and will be used to lower your tax basis which can also increase the capital gains you show (unless you're rolling into a 1031, of course).Hope that helps.

She was straight up and honest with me and even pushed me away from deals she thought were not what I was looking for.

I am the owner and that’s part of the deal.I do think that it is incredibly awful and hypocritical of Homeaway/VRBO to be actively be pushing trip insurance to every renter, for just these such occasions, and they have apparently found some escape hatches in their policies and are NOT reimbursing guests for CV related cancellations.  

Request rent roll?
