Open communication is key in maintaining a positive landlord-tenant relationship, and being transparent about potential changes can help avoid misunderstandings.

Thank youGerman It is the CA Franchise Tax Board's position that an out of state LLC owning an out of state property run by a California resident would still need to register in California:https://www.ftb.ca.gov/forms/m...

And yes, we are crunching the numbers to see if our cash flow is positive or at least break even to consider the purchase.

You are in a very bad position because of this - "I also don't have a GC and am managing the rehab myself and planned to spend under $2,000 for this."

However, after some consideration, I decided to give it a try, and I experienced positive results in the initial few weeks.

Ie, invest in cash flow positive properties. 

After that I am using 5% rent increases with 60k renovation in yr1- using 20% down around 8.5% rate, many loan officers keep telling that only 25% down is minimum.. idk- yr1 goal to increase rents w renovation around 60k spend w 5% rent increase (tricky part it probably lot of rent lost while renovating maybe 2-3months) - estimating that yr1 and 2 is negative CF and then projecting positive CF w yearly 5-10% rent increasesAny ideas if this makes sense or not?

Are you generally seeing cash flow positive deals from day 1?

I don't have anyone I know enough to trust as a partner so I'd like to offer debt positions or equity payouts instead of partnerships.
