A lot of my clients are seeing great success in C/C+ locations that are in the major areas of growth, so they get the mix of appreciation and cash flow. 

Permitting also secures compliance and avoids fines, which can be significant in LA.This post does not create a CPA-Client relationship.

Or even missing out on securing a better deal, higher price, or greater return but did not do so, often due to a lack of negotiation or oversight.

The MTR (midterm rental) strategy accommodates for people looking for 30+ day stays.I think you have a solid location with two stadiums nearby, now it's just a matter of tapping into the demographic/market for people looking for housing.

Be sure to read the rules located in the footer of every page. 

I won't veer from my qualifications-- quality location, value add opportunity from the get, proper price entry point.

Each of these properties is in a different location and was purchased at a different time.

My strategy has been to grow aggressively (by using as little of my own money as possible) to secure good assets, and once stabilized, then work to pay down loans to own them free and clear sooner rather than later. 

Quote from @Ben Whittington: Title says it all - how much do you, private lender, pay for attorney's to prepare your loan documents (contracts, promissory notes, deed of interest, etc.) and where are you located?  

I am located in Sheboygan Wisconsin about an hour north of Milwaukee.
