Sell and Rent Back

I’m 24 and hoping to be able to buy my first property in the next year. My idea is to buy something small, that needs minor renovations – like upgrading furnishings, modernising bathroom etc. Do you have any tips in general. Are property auctions an affordable way to get on the ladder?

Bought property in a new orleans tax sale. I am in doubt as to my legal rights to collect rent from the current tenants , as well as how to serve notice that I must receive said rent. May I make renovations under these terms on an occupied residence.

Quick Property Sale

I recently discovered what appears to be a gem home in a phenomenal location in Atlanta. It’s an older house with countless points of upside. It’s rather unattractive from the outside, but as someone who is looking to get their hands dirty and add value (even go as far as doing a major facade renovation), it’s perfect. It is by far the least expensive house in the submarket, and I first thought that no one could get comfortable with its flat roof and no one could see the potential in spending some money here. I discovered that there is a high tension tower located three doors down on someone else’s property and the lines run over the yard of the property of interest (about 1/3 of the way up from the street). I don’t mind living under them, I’ve read reports and there’s nothing too concrete about the effects. Question is, if I build significant value into this house (which it does need) is it still topped out in value because of the power lines? How does the majority treat that?

Rent Back

Ok I had bought an investment property in Perth (August last year) and I renovated it straight away spending $15 000 (total) on a new kitchen, bathroom, tiles painting etc it needed the renovations as it wasnt the best place to get a decent rental income. I went and saw my accountant last week and he told me I was unable to claim the $15000 i spent on the renovations (because of something about capital renovations or purchases) but I can claim a discount off the capital gains tax when i sell the property. Im 24 and dont want to sell it for at least 15 years. Is this right? Iv spent 15 000 on genuine renovations but I cant claim this? Please help. Thank You.
