The state doesn’t have rent control laws, but landlords are prohibited from collecting more than one month’s rent for security deposits.

Finding DSCR lenders willing to take a second position can be challenging, as many prefer the security of being in the first lien position.

Every time a guru “education” course was co pleated, I’d receive 10 -20 phone calls from either investor wannabes “building their team” in preparation for all the real estate “great” deals they were going to uncover or the same wannabes who had already identified a “great” deal (they hadn’t submitted let alone secured acceptance of an offer yet) and were lining up their financing which since they were purchasing at 50% of the value they’d end up with not only 100% financing but also walk away from the closing table with cash in their pocket.  

And it stands a "opportunity" of Pyramiding gains via 1031 into securing 3 similar units in market.     

Hi BP Community,I’m a house flipper in the Oakland / SanFrancisco area, and I’m seeking recommendations for insurance agents who can assist with securing builder’s risk insurance.

Consider all the things that could go wrong and see if the lease addresses them: unauthorized pets or tenants, early termination, security deposit, lease violations, late rent, eviction, lawn maintenance, parking, etc.5.

Simple economics, supply and demand. 

I recently had an estimate of $20,000 to create a basement egress window and I put my foot down and told my GC that I was going to rent the excavator, and we found much cheaper supplies, and were doing the project ourselves.

I've been doing it since 2015 (including Section 8), and I've yet to have any damage done that exceeded the security deposit.

Demand will drop, supply will increase  and those that actually want to sell their house will ultimately have to lower their price - so the theory goes.
