Of course, I'm one person and they're a major corporation.

I believe good solid nutrition will only enhance your productivity and enjoyment of your accomplishments.

Is your personal networth over $500k-$1m?

Hi Danielle, I put a couple links below that will give you some general data about both markets, and will give you some background on my personal experience with them as well.

I'm starting to wonder better ways to outsource this work and find solid tenants who will stay for the long haul. 

All my rentals out here in the Bay Area have Section 8 tenants in them that I personally screened.

I personally like House-hacking as primary choice in this market, followed by a light rehab BRRR, lastly would be flip or long term hold (unless you got a smoking deal!) 

We have found that finding an investor-savvy agent to buy property on market and a solid wholesaler to buy off market properties is the perfect marriage to find deals. 

Assuming this is an investment property, keeping track of your expenses and income in a separate bank account (not personal) and ideally holding the property in an LLC 

One person is extrapolating out the depths of the inner city to the entire market as far as long term viability for investment, when the other person is actually considering A/B neighborhood buy and hold.
