Thanks Larry, I hope it'll be very fruitful! 

Thanks for the reply.I live in the Los Angeles area (Orange County to be precise).

In this business, the low hanging fruit has already been picked.

It’s an appreciation play, not a cash flow play.Get on the green line or the orange line and check neighborhoods around each stop.

But I understand rentals is apples and Oranges to what I do today for income which is building new homes and bridge debt capital partner..

The land is owned outright, I'm not going to mention the acreage but it's prime land bearing mangoes, oranges, grapefruits and coconuts seasonally.

Her name is Dawn Calache she is located in Port Orange and she's awesome!

However, it's not like 30 years ago when the ceilings were "Popcorn" and the walls were "Orange Peel", although you do still find that on many older homes.

Sounds like you are in Orange county, which does not allow STR unless you live at the property and are allowed to rent out a portion.

I've tried it and been screwed with it more than once.Bathrooms get semigloss light blue, kitchens get this semigloss light orange/salmon color that we like, living areas get a light gray that doesn't fade easily.Over time, you see the white oil paint, anywhere it's in the dark and not exposed to sunlight , with yellow and darken.
