Verify that the addresses given by the tenant on the application match the addresses on the credit report.

I considered the Norada investment offering about two years ago and decided it wasn't a match. 

Here's how I do my due diligence:1) Portfolio matching: (takes 30 seconds per deal)a) Have an educated opinion on where I think we are in the real estate cycles (financial and physical market cycles)b) Then and only then do I pick the strategies, capital stack, and specialized asset subclasses that make sense for that opinion.

Also as Don mentioned I saw many private money HML melt down when they took on PPM type investors and did not have deal flow or could never match money raised to deal flow..

There you will be asked your criteria and then after answering a few questions you will be matched with 3-5 agents in your area.

Quote from @Chris Olandese:  I like this too - it's very definitive which matches my work ethic.

It’s still a worthy strategy to force cash flow that’s rare to find in SoCal, especially if you can reduce the cost of construction by doing a conversion/using an ADU grant or even buying a property with an existing ADU In general, even if the ADU valuation matches your cost including grants, they are usually not worth it in southern CA in single family zones. 

We focus on CapEX before beauty. as a realtor we understand selling or renting homes you have to make the home function, Roofing, windows, electrical and plumbing. after we address these we focused on beautify making sure the upgrades match the area and is forward thinking with color scheme, flooring, and flow.

from the list for the first place, I can't see how those invoices match what you need: caulk, bolt cap for toilet, 3 mini blinds (that should have been charged to the tenant), door/knob/lock (again what happened to the one that was there)What were the TWO invoices for glass for?

For every good matching comp at a high price theres 16 poor priced matching comps that the appraisers only focus on.
