@Chris VanderlooHey Chris some other thoughts, and I'm surprised not more have weighed in:Some analytics / data visualization that shows Variables like: price changes over different time periods (either based on estimates like Zestimates or actual sale data), in some cases, steep/rapid changes, or acceleration may be a window into when an area is getting that critical mass to move forward - I'm thinking a heat map etc after scraping price info over time - by the way, the Zestimate I've found the historical graph is not the ACTUAL historical Zestimate, (for whatever reason)Scraping the note world (paperstac, Note MLS) to again look for rapid changes in default rates or other relevant info that'd be leading indicator for pricing - note this would need more brainstormingWe use Monday.com - if there was a plug-in or something that'd help very specifically handle RE projects, especially as we onboard other people, that'd be great.Platform for specifically detailing projects for bid - something different than the Homeadvisor model, though - If we as investors could see actual historical labor rates on a per unit basis, this would be great. 

A Roth IRA may not be rolled into such a plan, even if you are eligible to sponsor a Solo 401(k).Checkbook control using an IRA LLC may be more tool than a single syndication requires in terms of functionality, but could still end up saving you money on fees as vs using a custodian. 

Rent is always a function of space, basically a buck a foot - my biggest mistake ten years ago when I bought my first duplex was size. it came down to two properties, and I went for the cheaper one: I could have bought the other one for 15% more money - and 50% more space. 

That’s like taking a step backwards, why get rid of two perfectly functioning bathrooms?

I do not paint for tenants but I make sure everything is clean and functioning.

Making me assume the sump pump was not running/functioning and the water could have been there for even longer.I'm wondering what kind of damage the standing water in the crawl space could have caused. 

Unless replacing those functioning appliances will allow you to raise rent, I wouldn't do it. 

Hi Asia,I'm biased, so I won't recommend any product in particular, but here are the top 6 functionalities you should look for in a Rehab Estimator tool:Estimate Starter Templates & Pricing DatabasesAbility to Customize Categories, Descriptions, Pricing & NotesAbility to Save Your Own Custom Templates for Future ProjectsAbility to Write a Scope of WorkAbility to Create Estimate Reports & SOW ReportsAbility to Track Your Actual Expenses Against Your Budget#1 Estimate Starter Templates & Pricing DatabasesEstimate Starter Templates and pre-built cost databases are a must-have feature to help you quickly get started estimating costs for your rehab projects.Building your own estimate cost databases from scratch can take days, if not weeks of research.

Clean, safe, and functional is our goal. 

We picked the wrong operator and ran into many problems getting the facility filled and functioning efficiently.
