On paper it is not a great money maker, but location can make all the difference.

So what are your eye catchers or deal makers that set your units apart from the rest? 

I would like to be as hands-off as possible and simply make real estate a way for me to create passive income for myself4) I would like to invest in properties within Southern California, although it is expensive I believe I can find deals here in Long Beach, Riverside, Joshua Tree, Palms springs, and in general places outside of Los Angeles and Orange County5) Also open to investing out of state in places like Texas (where my parents live and I can partner with my father), Las Vegas (because its only a 4 hour drive and can make the drive when I need to), and Pennsylvania (where my girlfriends parents live and can possibly partner with them on those properties)I also want real estate to help me accomplish a few BIG goals in life. 1) I want to buy a home for myself here in Los Angeles so I can continue to conduct business here in hollywood.

Because I wonder if the seller took the tenant because she was overpaying and knew he would not be around for the inevitable blow up....who rents to someone getting monthly help from a sister to make rent?

This is great for securing low interest loans when we want to make real estate purchases.

Still own that money maker!

@Theresa HarrisYou are spot on, im not extending the lease on the most difficult tenants, essentially they operate on two groups- 2 tenants on the second floor against 2 on the first floor, I’m not extending the lease on one of each group, breaking up their alliance and letting it go of the trouble makers.

If they're unable to make rent.... well they were losing their home anyway. 

I am moving to Boston from San Diego next month with the goal of learning how to make real estate investing a legitimate career for myself.

I mean, a Home, Retail Store, Animal Hospital, Nail Salon, or many things would be great beside of our building as they do not produce foul gasses, odors, and vibrating our building for hours a week.
