Thanks Paul, I've been inundating myself with various Bigger Pockets sources to get up to speed.

If you message me, I have a connection with a business in Chino Hills, CA who produces high quality cards for a low price!

(That's an important question for EVERY property you buy).At the start, you will likely have to wait 6 months for each successive refi, but once you get a few under your belt, with accordingly increased ongoing cash-flow, the seasoning periods might be able to be applied to earlier properties once further appreciation kicks in too, allowing you to speed up your deal-making regimen?

Somehow, none of the necessary infrastructure was completed to  make either of those work ( you need high speed transportation to LAX and/or downtown LA). 

The lender I use on all of my deals is on speed dial and speed text whenever I have questions and he is happy to do so since I bring him so much business.

While there are some quality LO's there, I have also found some of them were working at Pizza Hut or Jiffy Lube last year (nothing against those places, just making a point). 

Looking for a higher build quality and again need something that will last.Any ideas on where to get good cabinets and/or vanities for a great price?

Whats the return, rents, tenant quality, and time spent like? 

Also, just because something cost less does not mean it is a better investment ... in any market, one should focus on value, not price; quality over quantity.Second, there are ways to make a quick return in a high appreciation area, but it is through forced appreciation rather than cash flow.

I track down their phone number and call them after my direct mail piece is sent stating that I'm just calling to follow up. 2) Speed - a) Are you picking up your phone on the first or second ring or are you sending them to voicemail?
