Quote from @Steve Tokita: I am an out-of-state investor living 1500 miles away from three properties that I am currently renovating to rent or to flip. 

**Mesa's Eastmark area** - Strong school districts driving family demand Property Types in DemandThe most profitable flips currently involve:- 3-4 bedroom single-family homes built between 1970-1990- Properties with pool potential (but without existing pools)- Homes with generous lot sizes that allow for expanding square footage Renovation Trends That SellPhoenix buyers in 2025 are particularly drawn to:- **Energy efficiency upgrades** - With Arizona's extreme temperatures, smart thermostats, improved insulation, and energy-efficient windows offer significant appeal- **Outdoor living spaces** - Covered patios, pergolas, and native landscaping that requires minimal water- **Modern desert aesthetic** - Clean lines, earth tones, and natural materials that connect to the Sonoran landscape- **Flexible spaces** - Home offices or multi-purpose rooms that accommodate remote work Challenges to Navigate Water ConcernsThe ongoing drought situation means water-conscious renovations are no longer just trendy—they're essential.

I have read a lot of posts on Residential Assisted Living, that I am considering getting involved in, and seems like many of the posts make reference to RAL Academy and noted that there is an online version and in person version . . . wondering if any of you have taken either and if you would recommend one over the other and why.

Your best bet is a property on water and sewer in a non HOA community and either convert the garage to an ADU or Build a separate ADU .

Is BP a hot spot for high volume wholesalers?

Water- Either check with neighbors, drill test well, or call me to Witch water to see if you have water on the ground. 

I want to connect with others in the assisted living space. 

Quote from @Chris Seveney: @Charlene Kingsnorth have you had an sec attorney also review what you are doing as if you're are having multiple people as part of a loan participating in it depending on the state this could get you in hot water - so be careful  good point Chris some state allow fractionalized deed of Trust mortgages other do not or require PPM like documents prior to offering them..
