I’ve got 31 units, and I’m sure there’s 4-5 other landlords with 15-50 units in my area.

Being a landlord is not an overnight get rich quick scheme.

I’m looking to purchase a 10 acre parcel either in Columbus, Dahlonega, or Helen.I’d like to live on half the land, and develop the other half into five A frame luxury short term rental units. 

Given California's hostility towards landlords, you would also need enough cash to weather some long evictions.  

Whether it remains an ESA or not, the Landlord has to treat it like they would any service animal.

Id like to understand what the most profitable way to fix up a current 1,700 SFR in a 6,200 sq. foot lot would be? The lot goes from street to street. Plan would be to sell.

You think it sucks to be a landlord in CA?

I was just asking if any other landlords heard of them.

@Micah Huffman unless you are going to commit to learning some basics about being a landlord AND are willing to commit at least 2-4 hours each month managing a Property Management Company - it's probably best you sell.Otherwise, it's highly likely you could lose more due to bad tenants and management.
