When I sign on a new tenant, I give them a choice.

It starts with a choice, that I AM GOING TO DO THIS, full stop.

@Shiloh LundahlTheoretically assuming properties were identical in every sense yes because I don’t need cash flow and would rather have the extra $100k in equity.Now $600/mo could get you another $100k mortgage to get you another property that could potentially also cash flow but for me personally I am in equity play mode now income mode - just my personal choice but nothing wrong with the other scenario

We're just starting to look at out-of-state investment options, turnkey providers being one choice, and I am wondering if anyone has had any recent experience they'd like to share about Zach Lemaster and his company, RentToRetirement, specifically in Birmingham and Memphis.

I believe there are many factors that would indicate which one is better in your market of choice.

To successfully invest in a property for steady income, establish your investment standards, research the market thoroughly, assess your financial preparedness, connect with local agents, property managers, lenders, and other investors, analyze properties carefully, consider various financing choices, do your homework before making an offer, and negotiate and finalize the deal.

The choice will be unique to your goals and should be discussed with a CPA. 

All PG&E, SDG&E, SCE, and community choice aggregation residential customers — except for California Alternate Rates for Energy, or CARE, and Family Electric Rate Assistance or FERA, customers — will have to pay this tax, and it cannot be reduced or avoided, no matter how little energy a household uses.

Ultimately, the choice will depend on your goals. 

I think overturning some of them will include getting some of the nearby lots to vote on it as there is a clause stating that that's allowed.The thing that scares me the most is regarding the stylistic stuff -- there's a clause stating -- "The homes shall be harmonious with and reflect the exterior design characteristics of these homes already erected on the property" and that combined with -- "it should be lawful for any peron or persons owning any real property situated in said tract, to prosecute an action or proceeding at law or in equity against a person or persons either to prevent him or them from violating these covenants or to recover damages for such violation"My RE lawyer friend said that its such a broad clause that it could potentially open you up to getting sued if a neighbor really wanted to depending on the stylistic choice of your home.
