Yes, I've heard this before and therefore, for the time being, if I get involved in any sub to deals, I'll keep them within the 200k limit (as I can pay this off if push comes to shove).However, I would still like to learn more about sub to, any guidance concerning reading materials would be greatly appreciated. 

Longer lead times I get alot of intern inquiries which can be fine but income wise they aren't as strong a candidate.  

Not how cash flow works.And I get it, investing in CA is hard.  

I'm broke as a joke but I have good credit how do I get started 

A handy search bar in the upper right makes it easy to find previous discussions, blogs, podcasts, and other resources.

I get a lot of applications from out-of-area people, typically moving from another state.

I get on avg 800 per month NET income 15- 20% NET (based on cash purchases) on SF, and more on my duplex's.

Another question (2) How can I get paid?

Am I getting greedy to ask for an additional seller credit at closing to help offset some of repairs needed?

If you’re paying off more than $1,500/mo I’d probably keep it barring any major upcoming capex. (3-5 years out so buyer wouldn’t automatically ask for it to be repaired at sale.)Good luck either way.
