This relative to my situation, is a super modest amount of funds.

There's ways to help limit your overall liability like targeting more turnkey properties or properties with long term tenants (2+ years of living there) to help the learning curve.

High-end properties might require a white-glove approach with customized services, while more modest properties may prioritize affordability and efficient communication.

If i lived in San Jose, the first RE investment that i would consider is a local property with an ADU that had distribution on the lot that would allow a profitable lot split.   

Hey Dan, renting to a sober living operator can be a great idea.

Have a client that does sober living homes here in B/CS.

I knew from the start that I was going to buy this propert...

Living trust does nothing for anonymity.

I am going to see if I can switch to a local Wisconsin insurance that reflects our local risk level in their premiums.Many of the homes in the Pacific Palisades are 3-5 million, but when you look on Google Street View, most are very modest homes from the 1960s (there are some $20m ultra luxury mansions too), so a lot is the land value, the home replacement value on a 1600sqft may be what - 500k at the most?

You really should never leverage the home you live in.
