Real estate has so many tax benefits and credits available, that I always tell people it's crucial to have a CPA that's extremely knowledgeable in this area.

Having strong local knowledge goes a long way in this business.

With that knowledge one could make a ridiculously low offer with a high chance of getting accepted.  

Keep stacking knowledge and saving, and you’ll be surprised how quickly doors open.

I don't own any properties with asbestos siding and I have my concerns, so I hired an asbestos professional to go check it out, grab some samples and conduct testing.Still waiting to hear back from the Asbestos testing but I wanted to know if anyone here has experience, knowledge and or own any properties with asbestos siding?

That’s why I connect so well with many homeowners, because I know what it feels like to need someone you can trust to handle the details.As a perfectionist native who’s intimately familiar with the Hampton Roads coastal region, I’m here to provide high-level execution that can be trusted.

Build your knowledge and your capital and when you're ready, execute!

Thanks in advance, still a fairly new investor and can use all the knowledge available.  

My goal is to make the most of this property and start building a portfolio within the next 12 months after returning to the US.I'm here to soak up knowledge, connect with other investors, and figure out the best path forward.

Note more sophisticated value adds can do better than rehabs (I had one once that cost nothing to add ~$200k and my initial protege achieved about $500k value add for $0 (just knowledge on better use of the property)).- maintenance/cap ex seem far too low for 5 units.
