If they're seasoned investors, they will most likely be able to tell you upfront what a unit will rent out for if they have all of the details on the spot. 

Thankfully you live in Sacramento so you don't have to worry about a snowy season slowing you down.

Our unit rented well but looking at other listing due to price not increasing we lost out 5-10% out on peak season time.Teaont issue was when we had a water damage and needed Evolve help to cancle up coming bookings and asked then to help with guest communications for the refund options.

If you were a seasoned invested and doing a live in flip and the numbers were good (which really don't seem to be the case ) it would still be questionable.

The home needed a lot of cosmetic work and a new roof of the older section of the house.

Hi, how do you estimate maintenance and cap ex for a new condo conversion vs. an older building in a high cost of living area (mo rent/purchase ratio of 0.4%-0.5%)?

As the tax season is coming up, I'm starting to think if it's worthwhile to hire a tax planner (mostly going forward, as 2021 is nearly over) and tax preparer (same person?). 

Great ideaI would suggest getting in with an older more experienced agent and offering to help them for free with whatever they need Just because you get your license doesn’t mean you can’t use an agent to help you when you are first starting out  that is what I did I would also suggest you watch Ben Malla on YouTube.  

My thought is to look for older (2+ years) homes nearby that have sold recently as better comps, but I don't know if they'll consider it.Thanks!
