I will be looking within 35 minutes of Chico, CA.

Pennsylvania is still the fifth largest state after CA, TX, FL and NY and covers a large area with different sub-economies. 

:I would have a landscaper visit the property..

Ca has been passing statewide ADU laws for the last half dozen years.  

I have a strong feeling that our market will replicate california soon.

Typically, you would have a pest control service visit every 2-3 months, but this can vary depending on the region and the specific issues you're dealing with.

(I also suggest an in person visit to meet folks and get to know the areas, not to see a particular property but to build relationships.)Once you are active in a market you will start to connect with investors who may be selling, wholesalers who have assignable contracts, and your realtor may also have access to off market opportunities. 

We completed the work 2 weeks before our baby was born so we took a 4 week hiatus to rest and have the baby.Then I dove into the design, planning, and permitting for the basement.I visited the local Permit office in Alexandria and basically said, "Hi, I'm a new homeowner and I'm an idiot when it comes to permitting.

My main question though is, does California law require that I use the specific C.A.R.

This Millpond Ct property was an exciting opportunity due to its prime location in San Juan Capistrano, CA, and its untapped potential.
