If that isn't feasible for his situation I'd recommend looking for rentals in the southern/middle part of the country where price points are much easier and the laws are landlord friendly.

About my last email, I want to explain that I wrote it not just to say thanks but also to talk about some practical issues.

I want to build a legacy for my family and have the ability to take care of my parents and in-laws in the future.

The first property is a condo, and my wife and I own 90% of it, and my brother-in-law owns 10%.

But it’s most important to have the practicality and shrewdness to see and take advantage of it. 

Maybe add on Booking.com but after that it's the law of diminishing returns - lots of work/time for just a guest or two.If you are self managing I would limit the amount of platforms to the top few because it could get overwhelming tracking the property on all the various sites because they all work a little bit differently.

How are landlords in SF handling the security deposit law that requires them to pay interest to residents on their deposits?

I'm not 100% sure on the law, but I know that if you don't clean a dryer vent it's possible to become a fire hazard in time.

It might be work just looking for deal analysis practice to see if you get closer to a number that works.

I'm a college student, and I plan to start investing in multifamily homes once I graduate, and I recently started looking at deals on Zillow just so i can practice underwriting.
