Hello,I'm a super host on Air Bnb, and I have one that does really well and am looking into getting a few properties to help cohost. 

@Floyd Soriano this is a super important question and it doesn't just apply to contrators.

Quote from @Alex Olson: 1031 exchanges are super powerful.

I use HubSpot as my CRM—super easy to navigate and it syncs up well with other stuff I use.

In Hayward, Union City, and Newark, values can swing significantly block by block, so verifying your ARV with super tight comps (same bed/bath, similar sqft, within 6 months, same zip or immediate area) is critical before committing.A few things I'd suggest given your numbers:First, stress test that $900k ARV hard.

Developing land is super risky, so just make sure you are checking everything that needs to be checked with the right consultants. 

I'm not opposed to an online service as I'm traveling more and that would be easier to access, but I've heard horror stories (plus super expensive) to go with QB online. 

Multis tend to give you better cash flow than single family/townhomes which I think builds a good foundation. 2-4 units you can get fixed debt and they aren't super expensive here as well.

Any advice, insight, or lessons learned would be super helpful.Thanks in advance, looking forward to learning from this group!

Super glad to be here.My name is Jada Bell.
