Same goes for mowing the grass, painting and replacing a water heater.The "rules" are a nice guideline and work great in some markets, but real numbers are very important in my opinion.

That way you can make a quick trip to the property whenever needed and spend no more than 4-5 hours traveling back and forth on a single day.For Bay Area Investors, that basically leaves you with Sacramento and Stockton for driving distance (there are other options, but that's where you'll generally see the best returns) and either Las Vegas or Phoenix Metro for flying (less than 2 hours).Wherever you decide to invest, here's the two main things you're going to need:1) Knowledge of the Market: Just google "(name of area) real estate" and read every single news article on it from the last 3 years.

It's nice and generic, and anonymous. 

Meet ups and meet ups That’ll start opening different doors.Matching skills to needs and vice versa.
