That's not going to stop me, I'm currently building a team over in Birmingham to get my portfolio started, but I wanted to get some advice about how the out of state buying process normally works.

If I'm crossing a line here I'll definitely stop. 

@Toby Mims when our first manager stopped communicating, we interviewed companies with several licensed managers so if one had issues, it didn’t disrupt business.

That sounds like an exciting venture!

What can I do to stop it?

Stop hanging out with your deadbeat buddies who spend all day drinking, talking sports, and otherwise wasting away.

But I still stopped contributing?

Also, Fresno, CA is in the top 10% of US housing markets for appreciation, at ~9% annually over past 10 years and expected to continue given the growth we have seen here, proximity to big cities in CA, cost of living relative to the big cities, high-speed rail to LA stopping here when complete, etc.

@Josh Milewski Yeah, or ask the landlord to be up front with the tenant.....or something else - like have the landlord tell the renters that he was having an agent stop by to write up a BPO - which is different than having a prospective buyer come snooping around.
