Last but not the least, A VERY good property manager who can educate you on a market, help you form a strategy, fit right into your due diligence process, and execute on a clear takeover game plan as soon as you hold title! 

If you are using HML then that should be good to start with and put some skin in the game but you have to know how to negotiate your HML. 

As more and more tourist income comes from non-gaming activities at least it's less dependent on gambling.  

I am not yet in the game but plan to be very soon.

Then drive during rush hour and go to pro games or any event that attracts a 40 plus crowd.

I'm new to the game, I would definitely appreciate this kind of help from someone with  more experience.

hello everyone,I'm 20 years old with around 10k saved up to invest. I live in Dublin California and the prices here are too ridiculous high to start. Does anyone know places in California to start investing for rental...

Finding leads is the name of the game 

If you rent it out, you will be playing the appreciation game, like most SFR owners.

Maybe you can find a seller willing to hold the financing for a period of time, but they are going to want you to have skin in the game, probably a min of 10%.
