Anish,Investing 600K to get $100 cash flow doesn't sound to me like a good plan :)I think you can invest it much more efficient if you just look out of state.It will give you a much better price to rent ratio, plus in many states, laws are landlord friendly and not tenants friendly as in CA.If you want to learn more about out of state investments please feel free to check this meet up group:meetup.com/Los-Gatos-Real-Estate-Networking-Meetup/

I currently just moved back in with my parents, and work as an assitant for a top agent in Los Angeles.

Hi Everybody,I wanted to introduce myself- I've been visiting Bigger Pockets for years, but only registered earlier this year and started listening to the podcasts a month or two ago.My name is Matt and I'm a primarily buy and hold investor located in the Los Angeles South Bay area. 

Hello,I am based in Los Angeles and would like to get opinions on my situation and if there's anything I haven't thought of.  

@Shari Peterson - can you please share investor friendly title contacts in the Los Angeles area?

I have an opportunity to purchase a non-performing, run down assisted living facility in Los Angeles.

Or, seeing as how it's Los Angeles, just go all 12 x 24 tile for the floors.  

I live in Southern California Los Angeles area, have a W-2 job in Irvine and no expenses or debts, with an excellent credit score.
