You spend hours or days looking at floor plans, checking out the neighborhood, and driving by to see if there are any other houses on the block that look like they're in worse shape than this one.

I want to take the plunge but have mental/knowledge blocks and once I can get some answers from folks who have done it, I know it’ll happen.For context I’m an attorney and have worked mostly with Real Estate PE clients so the field and lingo is not foreign to me but doing it myself is very different.

Worst house on the block in a great neighborhood.

THe place is well done, newer cabinets, tile floors, block construction, dual pane windows, etc. 

I am looking to make an offer on a 3/1 house with a 1/1 guest suite directly below the house and is a block away from the beach with a beach view.

In order to turn it into a duplex, we had to :-move multiple walls-block the main hallway leading to the other end of the house.

My point is, being the new kid on the block isn't always easy!

This one is a block from my house.

unfortunately I think Alameda County's moratorium could block even at-fault evictions, not just non-payment.

I've found it invaluable to have someone to talk to when I hit a stumbling block.
