I'm pretty easy going and always down to make friends, so if anyone is around here wants to connect, let me know.  

One thing of encouragement is I have many personal friends and clients invested in Western and their values are up almost 300K with larger rent increases as well so I m hoping you have experienced the same results!

My son wants to move to Sacramento, his friends family lives there. 

Buy a new primary and rent rooms to relatives/friends/co-workers.

Do you want tenant-friendly or a hammer? 

@Anshuman ThakurThere are some very good advantages to investing in Nevada, low property taxes, no income tax, and landlord friendly.

I also hope airbnb does not continue to get less host friendly.  

My wife briefly help a friend manage their monthly short term rental in San Francisco while they were traveling and have a few friends that do it.Monthly rentals seem to book pretty well, but not at a significant premium to long term term rentals. 

With fully paid-off properties and significant equity, your options are wide open.I had a friend in Connecticut who ended up investing in Phoenix and he was in a situation much like yours - an inherited property and equity to work with.
