I did see a few great townhomes but the $960 HOA fee's are grossly out of whack and kill cash flow.Henderson, Summerlin, Spring Valley, The Lakes all have some great properties if you know where to look or have an agent who tends to get pocket listings.

In San Diego it tends to be on the lower side, this is because much of the value of our homes is in the structure and land, things that are not going to benefit from the rapid depreciation.If you would like more elaboration reach out to me at any time!

One thing that tips it off is generally they tend to have a lot of round numbers. 

Same goes for number of LLCs and what to fund them with, since bear in mind that CA tends to be more cumbersome and expensive to have LLCs than other states.California is generally more cumbersome than other states when it comes to taxes and filings.

I tend to ask them what they plan on using the proceeds of the sale for and if they have thought about being the bank and making that interest themselves instead of a bank.

The fall/market market tends to favor investors a bit more, as the common homeowner isn't selling during that time unless they have to. 

Without detail, appraisers will tend to assume low-medium quality of materials finishes and the like.

I like to work with investors because they tend to be repeat buyers and sellers and that makes them a good resource for me, so I spend a lot of time on the mentor side of things with each one to make sure we share common goals of building up their portfolio and wealth.  

I tend to categorize investors into 3 groups: Group 1: Too much deal flow and bandwidth but not enough money - (Lending is the key to this group's success/scalability)Group 2: Too much money and not enough deal flow - (All cash investing is the right decision). 

@Avery Biles, I am not familiar with this specific course, but as others noted I tend to be weary of all guru's and even more so generic courses.
