It's a personal decision, and I don't know how much they owe etc, but again at this point I would just concentrate on getting them out and taking control of the property.  

For sure LA has the largest Asian concentration though and by a lot.

It is perfectly OK to learn the business one step at a time and this one has a decent ROI and no repairs needed so you can concentrate on building your landlording skills.  

My goal is not to own hundreds of single-family houses, but rather concentrate on small commercial multifamily that will give me good ROIs.

In an active investment, boots on the ground are critical and you want concentration where you have a strategic advantage, which is usually your backyard ... if you want to diversify, then buy a passive investment like a REIT or S&P500 index fund and be done with it.2: 6-8% has been the long run average appreciation rate over the last 40+ years, and for almost that entire time it has looked expensive compared to other markets if going on price alone and people have been saying it won't keep going ... ask some old timers and look at the historic data if you don't believe me ... if you are talking about just this cycle, you may be right, but if you are talking long term, which is where your head should be IMO if you are getting into buy and hold REI, then I think the underlying supply and demand fundamentals are solid.

From what I have heard, Ohio law frowns upon wholesaling unless you're doing it through a brokerage as a licensed agent.I would concentrate on rocking out the exam - you may find you like another area of real estate!

Now, with a property under my belt and something to write on my resume, Im concentrating on value-add projects.

So with the right concentration you'll be there soon...2.

You should buckle down, get a good paying job and diligently concentrate on both saving money and getting your credit score into the high 700s. 

Over the past years I have concentrated my efforts towards investments in the downtown Tucson area.
