I've had good results with those they seem to be the most popular nowadays. 

@Moe Hirsch Yes, it's very relieving to see the area being so popular lately.

I bet your ac is set below 80. 

I bet you're getting a lot of hands-on experience with those.Feel free to ask any questions you have about investing or share your experiences as you start your journey.

Ultimately your bet in keeping it is that expenses (hoa fees) stay flat and you see higher appreciation (especially in rent prices) over the next several years.

I bet you already know someone that owns investment property, only they don't "appear" wealthy.Keep working (get a W2 job, or start your own business doing something that will get you around real estate), keep talking, and lead with service. 

Contrary to popular belief, this is not set because I believe it will give me a higher return.

Queen sized beds are more popular, and King-sized beds are rare in MTR which makes them an attractive option.

@Alicia Marks- Hi Alicia- I have no idea if you are still checking this, but here goes...I have a small portfolio, yet have managed to place bets in extremely high appreciation markets.

For a property like this, even in California, I would anticipate at least a +7% CR.Additionally, betting on appreciation is speculative and not the best approach to long-term investing.
