@Philip AndersonMultifamily properties in Ventura can perform well due to the area's high rent demand, but inventory can be tight.

You'll learn a lot here.I recommend focusing on 1 strategy/business model and going all in on that one until you've mastered it and it's stable.

I have many clients buying the older homes in North Phoenix near the north 101 as they are 20-30 years old, in need of updates, but also are poised for the long term growth from TSMC and other business/economic activity in the area. 

I started two businesses to that end.

Quote from @Benjamin Finney: Chris, interesting niche on non-performing mortgages/ rtl's.

Hard part with business is separating your emotions from it.

There is a barrier to entry, and the city is pro business, but our market had much better metrics.Lower entry points should not factor into getting in a market.

Very important that you do a lot of research on who ever you do business with.

I've picked up several really good deals because a tenant operator ran the business into the ground to a point where the property owners just wanted or needed out. 

I could use some help, and likewise would love to bring business to those in the community here.1.
