Really tired of anonymous, keyboard warrior beta males like you cowering in fear who cheerlead death tolls.

If your unit is in Seattle, I would bet a lunch that you loose on this not being wear n tear if this goes to court.My units are in a similar jurisdiction as Seattle. 

CA RE will always be a good bet as long as you are patient and stay on the opposite side of what everyone else is doing.

@Guillermo Oyola, agree with others that if you have the resources to hire it all out, that is going to be your best bet.  As

I bet a lot of apartment buildings have had a suicide.

@Carrie Reyment if your worried about it simply call the real estate licensing agency and ask them.. opinions on BP are just that opinions and we all live and work in different states heck I bet a bunch of folks on BP have never even been to Green Bay... or WI  so go to the authorities and get a definitive answer it won't cost you anything and you will know what is legal and what the state will frown upon.

Got on board with a beta program for that and it has been great so far.

I agree if you want to invest in here that second tier cities are probably a better bet. As

We went the traditional route with a realtor and MLS listings because we felt it was the safest bet as new investors with full time jobs and a kid.

Most good HF managers will, in fact, be able to generate returns that are more beta-neutral or non-correlative with the market.
