@Ryan Alacon I went out of state and built my team in Cincinnat. Wonderful market once you find a good contractor
@Lori N. I would do three forms of communication, email, phone, text to document you have tried. In California you only need to give 24 hours notice if you are entering the house. You do not need to give notice for outdoor inspections. The law could be different in your state. I would see if the dish is a violation of the lease. If so I would begin the eviction process since you have had multiple issues.

@Chris Witt I believe that will be from State to state on the laws but yes if the owner is aware of a large issue because a professional inspector informed them then they do have to disclose this. @Paul Sian any feesback?

@Richard Townsend so it's BRRRR or buy a fixer upper, rehab the property, rent the property out, refinance all your money with either delayed financing or 6 months after you but it with a cash out refinance. Then reapeat Buy Rehab Rent Refinance Repeat You have to buy the house low enough that when you rehab it you're all in at 70-75% of the after repair value. All this while still cash flow positive after accounting for all your expenses.

@Pearly Tan I think you'll like the Cincinnati market, it is where I currently invest. What are you looking at doing? Flipping? Buy and hold?

@Marshall Mickells I would first figure out how much involvement you want. If you want to be very involved then I would try to help out a local investor in their investing to learn more and read as much as I can on the niche you choose. If you don't want to deal with finding deal, dealing with contractors, calling banks, ect. I would find someone to partner with and become either a private money lender or the financial partner on the deals.
