Focus on building a strong team, using BP tools to analyze markets, and researching local laws.

If the prop 13 benefit vanished tomorrow, I would analyze whether I should sell.  

Should be good and very popular with buyers once we get to the Spring market.

I'm also open to discussing the properties I have purchased, analyzing which deals have been successful and which ones have not.In my experience, out-of-state investors who buy single-family homes in the suburbs usually see better returns.

A strong agent who invests can help analyze deals, run comps, get rents, help you explore multiple investing strategies, strategize offers and negotiate best prices/concessions/ repairs. 

I think this will all start making more sense once you start analyzing deals and working with an agent that can provide some insight.

So, come time to buy my first investment property Ill be competent in analyzing deals
