We have held consistently with a 30 to 50% guest return rate, which has helped us tremendously during the slow times.

The tax deed is not a warranted deed, but conveys the interest held by the county in the property to bidder.

And while rent has held rather steady more recently, history shows the overall trend is up and to the right.

It sounds like you still need a bit more renovation so likely some of the rehab funds would be held back for draws.

The median sales price held steady at $450,000, showing just a small increase from last month and a 3.2% dip from last year.

Bought a house with HML & Equity/JV Partners, Renovated, Put rooms up for rent, lived in the master suite, Partners Refied & Held for two years and then sold.

The general deadlines for a 1031 exchange are: - Within 45 days of selling the old property, you must identify the new property- Within the lessor of either 180 days of selling the old property or the due date of the applicable year's tax return (April 15), you must close on the new property- The money obtained from selling the old property must be held by a qualified intermediary.

Quote from @Tanya McDonald: Hey BP community,I’m a licensed real estate agent in California and have held my license for several years now.

I'm not sure why that metric has held true but it still applies, the properties that perform well above that ratio are the owners that treat their STR like a business.

The last thing you want is for the market to dip right before you’re ready to buy, potentially shrinking your buying power.On the other hand, if your timeline is 3 years or more, it’s reasonable to keep a portion of your savings in a taxable brokerage account to benefit from market growth but plan to gradually shift those funds into cash or safer assets as you get closer to purchasing.Key considerations:Real estate transactions move fast, and you’ll need cash available not just for the down payment, but also closing costs, reserves, and early repairs.If you sell appreciated stocks, you could face capital gains tax, especially if held less than a year (short-term capital gains are taxed at your ordinary income rate).You’re on the right path.
