I’m a construction professional transitioning into full-time investing with a goal of scaling to 500+ multifamily units over the next few years, primarily in the Southeast. I’ve managed large residential/multifamily c...

Quote from @Andrew Steffens: I have a client who lives in CO hired a company called Madison SPECS out of NJ do a cost seg for a property I manage in FL.  

Your net income after all things considered is approximately 50% of your gross take home income (I don't say gross revenue because most platforms will take their 15% cut before they issue payment to owners and using gross revenue is pretty pointless.)

The cost being charged includes building a reserve trash fund.  

If you have a STR, the first conversation you should have is if the property will be treasted as passive or active.The next conversation will be whether you should get a cost segregation study or not.It is hard to say whether $4,000 is a high price without knowing the complete picture of your tax profile.Do you have just a W-2 and one STR.

How anyone can think more regulation will lower the cost of housing I don't understand. 

You can get bids from electrians and plumbers local to get an idea of costs, but it will be in thousands. 

While it's completely reasonable to implement pet fees to cover potential wear and tear or additional cleaning, the structure should strike a balance between protecting your property and remaining accessible to qualified tenants.Here are a few considerations:One-Time Fee: A $350 non-refundable fee per pet might feel steep in a low-rent context.

For private money I have consistently received 10% interest with one point in origination and no other fees whereas hard money always piles on additional fees ranging from fees for applications, documentation and so on all at least a thousand dollars I am curious if anyone had identified funding sources that are lower cost when compared to either private money lenders or hard money lenders such as Kiavi or Conventus? 

A good tax strategist can save you thousands of dollars by leveraging entity selection and formation, tax deductions, cost segregations, bonus depreciation, 1031 exchanges, financial planning and tax planning.I recommend finding a tax strategist specializing in real estate taxation, business taxation, financial planning, and tax planning.Consider working with your tax strategist remotely to expand your options.I would also recommend looking for a tax strategist willing to work with you throughout the year.
