I'm actively looking for deals.

I currently live in Denver where the market is HOT, but am actively seeking deals (residential, single and multi-family) to help build equity and a safety net just in case the market bears towards a correction in the next few years.

Have a blessed weekend

We sold our property and pretty much broke even.I am now focusing on becoming an active real estate investor.

You could go to the new subdivision and there were tons of active comps and sold comps.

What is the landlords responsibility regarding parties or illicit activities by a tenant?

I know what the qualifications are to be a real estate professional, but I've read that an election may need to made so that I can treat all my rental activities as one activity so that my hours claimed are considered for all my properties versus needing to prove I spent enough hours for each individual property.  

I have buyers for tenanted houses but I’m also actively looking for the next ones to rehab.

Let people know your actively looking so in the event of an off-market deal, you'll be one of the first to know.

You want an "optimal assumption"  pick a California city or a beach property.This is a real estate forum after all.Have a good weekend.
