They had a rental/web portal that hasn't worked in the 9 months that I've been with them.

My 2 bits.Invest locally, ideally within 30 minutes or somewhere you can drive to within half a day, (Las Cruces, Sierra Bianca or to Tucson or Midland) first.

As far at MTR, I would probably look at somewhere with growing population, strong economy, diverse industries within a 2 hour drive where you have more control.

It all comes down to occupancy, and how attractive you can make your rental look to drive a higher occupancy rate. 

My lawyer is askig if you would be available to testify via the web or phone?

For Central California investors most areas are a fairly short day drive on some of the most majestic coastal roadways in the country.

There's a shared drive on google where the monthly reports were supposed to go but they stopped updating this year.

Also people moving up there from the Bay Area are already driving up property values as they get priced out in the Bay Area. 

@Austin Nicol In our opinion, the Class of tenant drives everything.So, figure out which Class of tenants are attracted to which Neighborhoods in a city. 

It is not a big deal.Simply stop mailing or contacting the person and life goes on.If I had to contact every ad sender I get in the mail to tell them to stop, first of all it wouldn't change a thing and secondly it would drive me crazy.
