California's SB 721, known as the Balcony Inspection Law, requires multifamily property owners to inspect exterior elevated elements (EEEs) like balconies and decks.

I've been made an offer of 50% down and for me (my Solo) to owner finance the other 50%.

The owner is open to seller finance for us.

I was very happy but little did I know the worst was yet to come.Steve Yoak got me in touch with KS Yoak enterprises who he said was his uncle and PM.

Starting with an owner-occupied duplex is a smart way to build equity and gain experience.

Eventually people die off and the homes go up for sale cheap, get abandoned and the park owner picks em up cheap and takes in the extra little bit of cash for the POH rental. 

Very little or a whole hell of a lot . 

@Dwight HenningRecommend exploring as many sources as possible to get referrals AND cross-reference them to get as much accurate information as possible.Check out NARPM.com, BP’s Property Manager Finder (BiggerPockets: The Real Estate Investing Social Network), etc.Also, encourage you to learn from the mistakes of others - by reading posts here on BiggerPockets about owners not having their expectations met by their current Property Management Company.

You paid the property owner $40,000 in rent.
