And there is no relief in sight on the insurance front so I don't expect the situation to get better anytime soon. 

The only change to the existing law was to expand the definition of "Provide real estate brokerage services" to include the following:Regardless of whether the activity is engaged in for another person, engaging in the buyer or selling, offering to buy or sell, or marketing of real estate or otherwise dealing in contracts, including assignable contracts, for real estate or options on real estate, on two or more occasions in any 12-month period.Principals buying and selling on their own account clearly fall within this expanded definition.

Hello all,I am very new to the forums and looking for some insight.

What is the best cash offer  i can bring to the table since the owner want his equity and does not want to loose the home either.

I was losing my offers to mostly all-cash buyers, and also they were going higher than I wanted with their offers (usually because I had a ROI in mind) - I was not smart because I think I was thinking the low rates would last a while.

I've spoke with the folks over at Abodea, who do offer a scalable call-center approach to HOA PM at quite affordable rates, but we're still missing the kind of local, on-site general contractor/handyman or capital management planning schedules that would be required for proactively addressing homeowner and community association needs. 

In my 18+ years as a Banker I have seen over 90% of my CA investors either move or continue to buy outside of the state.States like FL, IN, OH, TN, TX, AZ, NV all offer great LTR and STR options to capture a solid cash flowing property under $300K.
