When i look at cleveland properties run numbers on average of $220k for a 2 unit that rents $1800-2000 range.

We don’t want the hassle of short-term rental but want to make use of the cost segregation benefit for year 1. 2) Can I purchase a new truck/car for managing the STR and add the cost of the truck to cost segregation along with the STR unit.

I was wondering If anyone here has experience with section 8 and could guide me on where in the united states is the best areas to buy and also anyone that knows of good property management companies for people with properties outside of the state they live in.

They are in a bad spot because of poor management, this is very common in medium-sized multi-family, roughly 5-50 units.2.

We offer 2nd on 1 & 2 unit investment properties in your own name, up to 500k.

For 1-4 unit rentals, they would look at market rents. 

In my area property managers usually receive 1 month rent for signing a new tenant and an ongoing 10% commission for each month the unit is rented.What do you think is fair for splitting this with the firm?

Rents go up a heck of a lot more than expenses do.As a quick illustration - my current "oldest" property is a 3 unit I purchased in North Beacon Hill in late 2016.

They were charging something like $150 to inspect each rental unit when other municipalities were only charging $35-150.

Welcome and yep, we have units in SoCal, and Ohio
