Meanwhile, gross rents of $1,800+ for 3-bedroom single-families is an achievable figure, so it’s possible to generate cash flow if you lever modestly.There’s a bunch of other stuff that’s worth highlighting—the economy, demographics, neighborhoods, new construction, and more.

I would recommend fixing it and then determining whether or not to sell based on cash flow and profit after the sale.

@Lutfiya Mosley, I am very sorry you had to go through this experience.  

Anyone know of a reliable resource that can walk me through the process for an eviction in California?

What's the point of getting cash flow if you lose all your capital?

Theoretically, I should be able to collect the funds from the deal, should my family member decide to go through with the deal.

Find out what they offer as far as education and support, what their fees/splits are and what their expectations might be.Remember, you will need a certain amount of continuing education hours, and you will want a Brokerage that has the support you need to help you through your contracts and answer questions.

With $100k down it’ll probably be slightly negative cash flow.

You can probably make up for the perceived loss through the reinvestment in your US business.

You'll want to make sure it cash flows each month.
