Let me start by saying I have hired a CPA, and have a future meeting set up. 

Also, I was able to roll fees into the loan amount.

Junked it out, cleaned up landscaping, drywall repair, texture, paint, new interior doors and trim, new waterheater, new floors in kitchen. some new floors, countertops, new roof, painting cabinets.

I follow up with a phone call to confirm receipt and answer questions.

@Andrew Lax I just used google and looked up California ( sf Bay Area ) and it’s said and every 40 year appreciation of 6 percent, I have no crystal ball but if history repeats itself then I may not be to far from real numbers , who knows ? 

30 DAY  and move on, YES that simple, unless they can come up to at least 1500. 

Not super interested in STRs at the moment, since I think I would have a hard time keeping up with the management. 

I picked up a cabin there in 2021.  

Don’t the closing costs from buying and selling an investment property eat up all the appreciation (and mortgage principal paydown)?

Fix up-front everything you know is broken or will break soon.
