The best way to connect and learn is to be in rooms where it's going down.In terms of captial your best bet is to focus on a primary income that cash flow sufficiently, saving as much as you can and doing something real estate related so you can get familiar with the industry.

Quote from @Brandon Foster: Hello Ryan,STR is do able in the north county area but there are a lot of rules and regulations.The city of Oceanside right now will not allow anything STR unless it’s west of pacific coast hwy.This is changing a lot too so you need to be aware of that in your plans.Carlsbad is super strict too but there are some condos that are still available to do STR in.Medium term rentals are as safer bet but way less profitable.

That’s the best bet.

You're best bet is to call a few brokers local to the area and see what they can come up with.It's definitely going to be a surplus or excess carrier that will do it and the premiums will be high. 

That’s the best bet.

I'm betting he'd drive to that area.

I’m not a betting man.

Typically, you can only do one rollover per 12-month period (again, IRS Publication 969 has the details).In the end, having the option to invest your HSA funds is usually a better bet than letting them sit in a basic savings account.

An experienced broker with lots of choices at the palm of their hand is probably the best bet.

We do want to settle in a little bit here while continuing to do our homework, but hope to get into something in the next 6-12 months.With the way interest rates are looking now and what little I see on public listings, I think a smaller multi-family that needs a little rehab would be the best bet.
