As both a landlord and a local investor in Boca Raton, I’ve seen how deposit disputes and inconsistent inspections can cause real frustration for both owners and tenants.That’s why I started offering independent, photo-verified move-in/out documentation services for landlords, property managers, and short-term rental hosts.We provide:Neutral, third-party documentation (so owners stay compliant and protected)Flat-fee inspections starting at $9924–48 hr turnaround with photo/video reportsOptional cleaning or repair coordination add-onsCurious if others here are doing this or outsourcing similar work?

My concern is selling now and later regretting it if our kids end up here and it’s priced out.Options I’m weighing:Sell within the next year and use the §121 exclusion.Pros: harvest tax-free gain; redeploy into 3–5 cash-flow rentals; simplify; diversify.Cons: lose the “legacy house” in a prime area; potential regret if kids want to live here later.Keep and re-rent for cash flow and appreciation.Pros: maintain foothold in an A location; optionality for kids later.Cons: likely forfeit §121; future sale may need a 1031 (adding timing/loan complexity); modest cash flow now.Hybrid ideas I’m open to:Sell now, earmark funds in a conservative bucket to help kids buy later (if/when they move back).Sell part of the equity via HELOC/portfolio loan, keep the house, and still buy rentals (trade-off: leverage/risk).Move back in later to re-start the §121 clock (understanding holding costs/complexity and tax rules).Questions for the group:In a scenario like this, how do you weigh tax-free equity harvesting now vs. long-term optionality in a blue-chip location?

I have a basic contract, it doesn't carry any dust protection description, just notes demo.   

;t=94s I have no experience with this, but with anything my first thought is: How can I add more value.Although I personally am not a fan of solar, it might make more sense in areas like you mentioned to mitigate or even eliminate long-term energy costs.Rain harvesting systems too.

Quote from @John Quinn: Your trees won’t be harvested for 20 years .

Again, I agree with my buds here.An LLC provides no liability protect, well almost none.

unless it was a recreational type property were my sole purpose of buying was to just recreate on it and I don't care when and if they ever get title.. or its ag or forest lands etc were titel does not disturb my ability to grow asparagus and then harvest and sell said asparagus

Harvest is just underway so no indications yet on stress, mainly due to tariffs and no sales to China.  6.  

LLCs are not super cost effective and provide minimal protection depending on the state. 

This raises your cost basis and lowers taxable gain.Selling costs: Realtor commissions, title fees, legal fees, etc. reduce the gain.Loss harvesting: If you have taxable investments, you can realize losses in the same year to offset the home gain.
