Where do these ideas even originate?

Just to clarify after reading what I originally posted, I would be getting a building loan from a bank that is convertible at the end of the build, not financing it cash from my pocket.

You don’t necessarily have to pay points for the rate, but you’ll very likely be charged an origination fee.

Buying from secondary market or looking to originate / seller finance ?

I wanted to ask if anyone who was originally an investor from CA moved to other landlord friendly states like NV, AZ, TX and found their market and how that has been.

I'm biased and can provide reasons and data to show that using an agent will protect you, get you more money, less stress and so on.The reality is you can do it yourself, but tenants generally don't cooperate with showings and that causes lots of problems for buyer to access the unit to show, inspections, appraisals etc.

So this is actually fairly straightforward... 99% of houses don't make good rental properties - your original primary will not make a good rental. $2900 (mortgage payment) - $2500 (projected rent) = -$400 (monthly cashflow).
