Establish good communication and relationships with your tenants to foster a positive renting experience for both parties.

There are several investor meet-ups across the state where you can meet someone with the experience and willingness to help foster your development idea (or at least connect you to someone who can).

I had a fantastic time, and, as always, I learned so much from our interactions.

Quote from @Dave Foster: @Tyler Prosser, Great strategy!!! 

Again, the BiggerPockets store has some books for this or you can learn by watching podcasts, reading blogs, and interacting on the forum.

@Dave Foster It was our primary, then moved to rental for last 2 years..thus fitting into both the 121 and 1031 options, no?

I'm not familiar with the case, and don't have rentals there, but there is a bit of poetic justice here...not that I agree with the overall result, but far too often I interact those who simply institute 'clauses' in a contract (Lease, PSA, Options etc) which are grossly one sided or as it seems in this case unlawful.

Quote from  Foster: @Anthony Quint, the 1031 exchange is something you don't have in CA that allows you to sell appreciated real estate in the US and purchase new real estate while indefinitely deferring paying tax on profits.The thing about this for a non US citizen is that you will be subject to a 15% withholding called the FIRPTA withholding tax.
