I think one of the worse things about CA is how crowded the various large coastal cities are (traffic, event crowds, pollution, housing shortage, etc.).The question was posed why invest in RE in states like CA. 

Perhaps ears are ringing...I received this communication today from AHP:Dear Investor,We are finalizing 2019 Schedule K-1’s and you will be able to access these next week through your dashboard.

The member(s) of the Defendant have used the corporate shell as a way to avoid any liability for the serious injuries that were caused to the Plaintiff and others by the reckless action of the Defendant’s member(s) and agents.

The big apartment buildings are going almost $2k for a 1 bedroom with all the bell sand whistles.  

I've already renovated one of the bathrooms, and I’m planning to paint the interior, update the kitchen cabinets, possibly sand the wood floors, build a fence is a corner lot and increase the rent for the room since my tenant is currently renting the entire 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom house for $800 a month.

Ordered cement and sand for grout.  

A lot of my clients prefer the mid-high 100's and under 275k range because the clientele is more consistent so it makes the investment much more safe, comfortable and reliable.I'm not a big fan of option 4 just because that's all you're getting 4.5% no matter how you look at it.

In some very attractive markets like coastal cities I can see it being worth it not to rent the unit or rent it only under very limited circumstances in the low season because the high season is just too lucrative to allow anything to affect those bookings.

OK Thanks Chad.. yes now that you clarify that and I also work in the low value asset sand box but only to Investors who have money to turn them around I would never count on those owner occ's to cure at least at any large % to easy to  walk  and the properties as you mentioned many will be functionally obsolete and economically obsolete so they turn into your basic zombie house that local wholesalers go for ..

I've done quite a few 1031's and each time I had my three targets already picked which means they were less than two weeks from being signed when I closed on my downleg.
