You hit nail on the head - A LOT of buyers and investors are spreading out into formerly less-desirable neighborhoods for the cheaper prices, flip/rehab opportunities, and the less-stringent neighborhood association permitting policies (*ahem* anti-mansionization ordinance).In fact, LA Curbed.com recently did an article showing YoY increases in appreciation.

It is also cheaper.

Can't comment on most, but Id say on 6, it would depend just how long you guys plan on holding the property. 5 Id do garbage disposal just cause I figure itll be cheaper to replace that than to replace the drain line (since it would prevent anything large from going down), but only if its a middle class rental.Again, no expert, just my thoughts.

That's a great idea, however, that person may not be available to you all the time.My best advice to you is to get in contact with @Bryan L. 1.) cheaper (one time fee $300)2.) more reliable3.) search his posts, and you'll see he knows what he's talking about4.)

Dave is a 100% cash person, and suggests that investors pay off all personal debt and then buy their first rental with all cash, a cheaper home, and that that's a good learning experience.

Pc's first because there's so many bad addresses in the list and they're a cheaper way to find out which ones are bad/good when certain pc's come back.

So, yeah it was good for me.With my experience, I could have done trial and error to do them since it's just cheaper homes.

They also just recently brought up that they may give ME a 30 notice and move somewhere cheaper.
