Competition is high and operation cost is high .My property is in California, so wanted to get ideas from owners who were in my shoes.Any suggestions appreciated.Thanks.

However, with this potential for monthly loss, even though it is a minor dent to my income, I am wondering if I made the right decision.

I had been wondering myself just how far this could go.

A suggestion could be help them find temporary housing, such as a rental or a motel, and possibly cover the first month’s rent.

If she has any inrigue, I would suggest looking further into a duplex or even a single family for her to live in and rent out.

Do you have any thoughts or suggestions on conventional stick built as opposed to the manufactured multi family that's availble?

How much money will you make following the methods you're suggesting?

If you have time on your side and flexibility in your schedule I would suggest finding a local firm that you can intern or work for.

I was wondering the same thing cause I’m working with an agent to birddog deals for me and I’m a wholesaler.

Pretty informative for someone just getting into this...https://kimandbagwell.com/pitfalls-for-the-inexperienced-geo...And on another thread (https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/61/topics/1152882-tax-d...) there was an interesting point made by @Sam Bagwell (I wonder if the above is his firm -- likely)... if you engage an attorney to handle the debarment and the property is redeemed, you can end up upside down even with the 20%.
