To get started, consider focusing on house hacking in California with properties like duplexes or single-family homes with ADUs, or explore out-of-state rentals in landlord-friendly markets like Ohio or Georgia.

@Brett Coultas if you're a newbie, you want to be careful of an "investor friendly" agent selling you something they truly don't understand:(95+% of agents only know how to handle owner-occupied transactions - you can verify this by asking them calculate ROI for you or Cash-On-Cash!

Quote from @Dan Huang: @Tyler Sweet I am a firm believer in the disruptive value of blockchain technology and decentralization, and a crypto-friendly realtor in Las Vegas. 

I stayed in touch with all of my investors who bought off of me to see how well they did and my biggest joy was when they returned to buy more or told their friends about me and what I do! 

I plan on getting a property every year until I retire if I can find a good deal that cash flows positively.I have a very close friend whose stationed in Columbus GA whose a real estate investor and owns rentals there!

We have rented the long term unit to family friends for over a year and the bills were always reasonable.

Sacramento metro by contrast is more friendly, and there are some areas we target here that do very well for STR.

I am looking to partner with a close friend of mine (we've worked together many times before with both of us in various roles) to primarily do rehabs for LTR and/or resale.

They will get in touch with the property manager, let them know a complaint is filed, and typically give them an opportunity to make things right before opening an investigation.Have your friend look for a new PM immediately.Start by going to www.narpm.org to search their directory of managers.

Shout out to permit professionals like Roy Hasson (just a friend in LA specializing in navigating permit process - this is not a business play we do not work together), who are dedicated to helping others and will likely develop similar resources to support their communities through the rebuilding process.If you’re working on rebuilding efforts or have questions, feel free to connect with me—I’d love to collaborate.
