Unfortunately the weather in VA did not allow for much more outside this week.All set to hang cabinets and lay tile in APT 77  until we realized that the mold in shared wall between the kitchen and bathroom was more than we could let slide, the dry wall however dry was barely wall and there were a multitude of bad patches from plumbing weeks of old.

You have several types of managers: · The "suck the life out of you" managers,· The "Give away the farm" managers,· The" bare minimum" managers,· The "it's just a job" managers,· The "average" manager,· The "good" manager,· The "great" manager,· And the what I coin the H.L.O. manager, which is the elite.

Some of the rights you transfer are: Possession - the right to occupy the property, Exclusion - the right to choose who can enter (visit) the property, Enjoyment - the right to participate in any activities he or she finds pleasurable without outside interference (baring any criminal activities, excessive noise, etc.) and Control - the right to legally use the property as the occupants see fit, again, baring any criminal activities. 

This allows you to quickly renovate units and put them back on the market at market rents.My approach is to target buildings that meet the following criteria: cashflows at purchase, even if just barely; significant upside to market rents; in a gentrifying neighborhood; smaller bedrooms counts as they experience more tenant turnover (which you want in LA, believe it or not!)
