Look for areas with strong rental demand, appreciating property values and favorable investment opportunities.Lastly, connect with other investors and attend local REI networking groups and meetups.

I'm hesitant due to the California laws that favor renters over landlords. 

By acquiring multifamily properties at favorable cap rates and leveraging growth projections, investors can secure attractive returns over the long term.While multifamily real estate may be facing tough times in the short term, there are promising opportunities on the horizon for investors who can navigate the challenges effectively.

Ill be sure to pass along the favor you gave all BP’ers in the future to someone else!!!

Sac is great market as well, but a little less favorable for taxes, landlord laws, etc. which is what attracted me to Reno. 

Will small claim court rule the judgement in favor of us?

Since you don't have an interest in calls/trainings, I'd look for companies with favorable splits.Berkshire Hathaway and Winzone are a couple of companies that come to mind.Also, my brokerage operates in every state and does not collect commissions on your personal deals. 

For my passive capital I chose to lean away from crowdfunding platforms in favor of building relationships with great operators and investing directly with them.

There’s never a guarantee with financing, it’s a lot of paper shuffling, and the system to appraise a property is…. almost never in favor of investors.

I told them they had to make the deposit themselves which they were in favor of due to not wanting to have to connect with me each month to pay me the cash and to do both at the same time.
