Once again, that is the myth that started from Wall street trying to sell their portfolio.

@Bob Asad I have rentals in a city that requires separate accounts for deposits.

What the city housing clerk is telling me is that there was a water leak from behind the sink pedestal on the second floor bathroom that has been running for a week. 

@James Wise it was always illegal, it's the DAs refusal to prosecute and the LE refusal to enforce is what brough this retail apocalypse on CA cities... 

And, none of them would want to be in all 3 cities unless it is a fantastic deal.

A strong “Core 4” can make managing your investment remotely much smoother and prevent a lot of headaches.Also, as you narrow down cities, pay close attention to factors like job growth, population trends, landlord-tenant laws, and short-term rental regulations.Happy to connect with you, and good luck as you jump in!

@An Lan I’ve lived in many cities where overseas investors do this.

If that's the case, check out some of the economic data about what cities have strong job and population growth.

Also if your condo HOA doesn't stop you the City of Plano might. 

If they are separate, permits would have been pulled and the city will have records of those permits.
