I'm dealing with a tenant issue at the moment and, honestly, as an out of state investor, I prefer the option that will resolve issues most effectively.

I wish I had a referral but they aren't taking clients at the moment. 

.: It is my view there are only a few paths in San Diego RE at this moment 1) patience.

you should collecte deposit the moment the lease is signed or 24hours max. no deposit, the lease is void.

I don’t currently have any properties and so for me at this moment it wasn’t a good fit.

Hi Jason, I just wanted to take a moment to thank you for sharing your strategy on fix and flips.

From a rate perspective, likely is not close to making sense at the moment, would need rates to drop further, however if value has increased and you are looking for cash-out, that motivation (any lower rate as icing on the cake / secondary concern) it could make sense to look into

And how long on average would you say it took you to become the owner and take possession of the properties (to flip or rent them I suppose) from the moment you purchased the debt? 

For the moment I think there is a window to capitalize on a less competitive marketplace.

Speaking as both an investor and realtor based in FtL, these small MF are very difficult to get into at the moment due to excessively high pricing leading to negative cashflow if you plan to finance them.
