I would like the opportunity to meet/network with fellow investors in that market.

From my experience investing in mid-tier and luxury hotels much larger is you need about 70% to make ends meet, you start getting happy about the investment about 80% and around 85-90% you fell like you are a genius. 

—and prioritize applicants who meet the criteria but also have a solid, reliable rental history.

Then you would have to pursue all your back-rent through small claims court starting in March of 2021 but the tenant basically has a full year after the moratorium ends to pay it back, if they pay it back.I'm talking to my property manager and having the property manager's eviction attorney look into a possible eviction in September due to the fact that the tenant re-keyed the locks which is a direct violation of my lease agreement, and thereby is automatic grounds for termination / eviction.

With your balance sheet and cash, you can put together creative deals without giving up equity and without using your cash but you are going to need to find a market and product which has 7-8% cap rates.I invest in the northeast, Great Lakes area.Diverse economies with education, healthcare as the back bone and tech as growth.In your area, you’ll have to raise way more capital in the form of equity just to meet DSCR with the banks.

Rent ready in leveraged RE in this market does not produce returns that meet my expectations of return for my effort. 

@Kase KnochenhauerNice to meet you also!

I had my first meeting with my accountant and she recommended NOT going with a cost segregation.

Obviously meet all safety requirements.

Plus for Bay area folks the fact that you can scoot over and meet them in person is a plus.Good company  and if anyone can make it work in todays market its them .. in my opinion and again I am an investor so take that with a grain of salt..Go meet with them.. do your due diligence and if you think its a fit jump aboard.
