Best of luck,Travis Hey Kevin,Since I definitely want to look out for your best interest, I repeat that investing out of state is the best option when you currently live in the very landlord Unfriendly state of CA.In addition, I never wanted a quad to live in as I just never liked the idea of living next to - above or below others.

Lack of down payment, lack of entrepreneurial personality, low tolerance for risk, looking for the magic key that fits their desires, just want to learn, sold "Castles in the sky" with a gibberish of disconnected statements that while true in a plethora of instances do not add up to truth in any one instance, fear of failure meaning not able to take a financial loss without going into poverty, never told up front how much money they will need to spend to buy the investment in addition to paying for the class.

Prepare for additional costs: If you’re adding units, you’ll likely need to address the water meter situation and possibly upgrade utilities.

There are cheaper one’s in D/F areas but I would be careful as those can create a laundry list of additional issues.

If you may please send me an email or text when you need additional help as I don't access this blog very often.
