@Alex Shaughnessy - DM me for my KC guy, he’s great.

I pull my crime data as part of a DISCERN report on vestmap.com. 

I would add Vestmap.com to the market research and analytics. Know your location before you calculate your cash flow! 

@Danica Moeller

I was in the exact same boat as your starting out in 2017. I recommend doing value add without massive rehab. Checkout my podcast 373 on BP where I talk about it! 

@Michael P.

It depends on how high your land value is. In CA vs Kansas City (MO/KS) I will get similar results after land value is taken out. With CA properties 40-50% of the value is land where in KC it is only about 5-10%. On a real 4plex in KC I got 32% bonus deprecation using DIY cost seg. My rule of thumb in low land value areas is 25% of the purchase price but it’s usually closer to 30%. Land value and finishes make a big difference so you really need to know those for your specific property. I do cost segs on all my rental props in year 1 using DIY. 

This is not tax or legal advice, it is just my personal experience.
