I've heard a lot of complaints about it this year.

Those are pretty decent numbers.Remember property taxes get re-evaluated every year and can go up every year AND they are kinda high relative to other states.Neighborhoods matter.

Let's assume a 3% appreciation rate per year on that.

If it’s a rental for 5 years and you move in to it for 2 years you get about 30% capital gains tax free (2/7ths) (you still owe 100% depreciation recapture.), live there for 5 years and you get 50% tax free. (5/10ths)

Background info: I have owned my home for >2 years now, relocating due to career (routine moving every 2-3 years).

My plan is to hold onto it for approximately 5 years and sell it.

I'm an aspiring investor hoping to move to Sacramento with my wife this year, and we'd like to do a house hack in a multifamily residential property.

If your loan is a 30 year and you are only 7 years into it, it may have a ton of equity but taking money out will result in negative cash flow even if you extend the loan back out to a 30 year.

Unless you are getting leads that are a 25 year person renting and do not own property, the lead quality is not the problem.
