Hi Everyone,

I am a new member to BiggerPockets.com and wanted to introduce myself to the community:

My wife and I own two SFH rentals in the San Francisco east bay (Oakland & Pinole).

We've completed a few profitable deals and still have two rentals that are easily managed and in the process of adding an ADU to one of them. Typically, we've look for distressed properties (like most everyone else). This has worked great since I'm an experienced, licensed general contractor and have been doing most of the work myself.

We're looking at expanding into multifamily properties to consolidate the management/work under in one location and increase cash flow. Anyone have some tips or advice on how to quickly analyze properties, especially in the Bay Area? What are key things you look for when researching a multi-family or a property manager?

Thanks!

Garry
