I can assure you you are not alone in how you feel about getting things going when it comes to investing in Los Angeles.

He stated " We are here to assure to the tenants safety is being looked after by the landlords" Pass reputations of previous landlords who came through have left a sour taste on the cities mouth forcing them to take action and implement more strict measures.

No one has been "required" to go to war since Vietnam, which had nothing to do with the petro-dollar and everything to do with making our assurances to Europe credible.However the de-industrialization of the US benefited Japan and Germany so perhaps add that to the ways in which we have subsidized their systems.

I was assured everything was okay and we were good to go, and the property has been under their management for awhile now.I recently found out that all properties in Austin are required to list the OL # in the description for advertisements (which includes Airbnb, VRBO, ect.) from a friend that works at another property management company in Austin.

That's above my pay grade so I won't argue that.Either way, BUYING IS HARDER NOW...due to high rates, but I assure people want to buy so we have pent up demand.We as real estate investors know that recession don't always equal housing crisis's or falling prices.

I assure you, as long as you take action, you will find success!

The ONLY thing that you can be assured of will be available when you need it is cash. 

Remember WHO asks for the pre-approval letter - - it's the BUYER, not the lender and that's to assure the buyer that the offer is genuine and not from a lookie-loo.The pre-approval letter will drive the lenders loan approval and underwriting process to produce a specific approval:we will grant a loan on xyz property not to exceed $yyk dollars with a COE on or before mm/yywith a GSI and NOI as represented by the displays from the existing owner.

He then assured me that the roof,HVAC, and plumbing was new and the property was “clean” and an “easy rental”.

If you include door-knocking, I can assure you that it works.Here are the issues, as I see them:All sales and marketing, including useing the telephone, are merely media; a substitute for nose-to-nose, toes-to-toes direct to person selling.Strategies like direct response advertising such as mail, requires the recipient to read an envelope or card, perhaps open a letter, make snap decision as to their interest, and respond by calling (offline) or going to a website or squeeze page or similar action.People who are difficult to find (skipped, frequent movers, etc.) are less likely to be reached by mail, let alone respond.
