I toyed back and forth with the thought of starting a weekly post from a newbie in the high priced market of Southern California (I’m in Ventura county).

There were couches, TV's, washers and dryers, kids toys, and a ton of garbage bags all over our front yard and in less than 15 minutes we were going to show this house. 

I like shrimp ramen with extra vegetables and my most expensive toy is my 99 miata.

So basic that I wouldn't setup a kid in a toy kitchen with the supplies they provide.

We use the garage as we normally have ebikes, dirtbikes or other toys along. 

I have been toying around with Process street but haven’t rolled it out to my team yet.Thanks for the inspiration to keep going.

I have been contemplating moving my properties to an LLC and toying with the same question, thank you for posting this Graham and really good insight Nathan!

We have toyed with an RV park and this is what little I have learned.If no services, then septic not going to be easy in flood plain. 

We're hosing a toys for tots drive as well and could use all the support we can get! 

I'm also toying with the idea of doing a cash-out refi on our current primary instead of a HELOC to fund the deal and then cash-out refi the STR property to take these funds back out after purchase.I love that there's so many approaches and strategies in REI, I just find it incredibly difficult to know which would be the best to go with!
