But I’m looking for solid resources or websites where I can independently research and estimate:Water / sewer (Philadelphia Water Dept. estimates?)

I also love talking strategy and helping people understand the nuances of local markets.If anyone is exploring opportunities in the Capital Region, I’m always happy to be a resource...whether it’s neighborhood insight, rent estimates, boots-on-the-ground feedback, or just a local perspective on a deal.Looking forward to learning from everyone here!

Most resources assume you already know the basics.

If do ourselves, wondering if a quality handyman, basic management software, and resources for an OH lease and tenant screening framework would be sufficient. 

The IRS treats that as a prohibited transaction, regardless of how funds are “allocated” between units.IRA money works best when it’s completely arms-length (often via a self-directed IRA) and for properties you do not live in.

Many buyers are coming from Atlanta, Florida, Texas, and other out-of-state markets looking for both lifestyle and investment potential.If you’re an investor considering North Georgia/North Carolina or an agent with clients looking in the mountains, I’d love to connect and be a resource.

The short answer: Yes, you can allocate $0 to those appliances.

Also, depreciation (including any bonus) generally gets allocated based on the portion of the property used for the STR vs. the long-term units, so having a clear breakdown of square footage and use is important.

In fact, land allocation is required even without cost segregation.We have debated land allocation on this forum for years.

The IRS will treat the property as mixed-use (part rental, part personal).So you’d typically allocate based on units or square footage.
