Quote from @Ericka Parrott: Hi Dylan, I live here in Atlanta.

SonuI have lived in Final for 6 years.

I am interested in buying a long-term turnkey property in a nice area (I live in San Diego so this property would have to be out of state).

I have lived in the US for about 10 years. 

Unless you have the rentals paid for by the time you retire, they aren't going to be enough to live off of. 

A few years later, I hired a local Wyoming attorney to create a living trust.

(For context, it's a 2700 sf 4 bd 3 bath house in an upscale Northern California suburb.)Kitchen A: Traditional, features a 48 in fridge, 36 in cooktop, window sink (no view), pantry.Kitchen B: Designer, features a 60 in fridge, 48 in range, large kitchen window (no view), sink facing living/dining room; unfortunately no pantryKitchen C: A Little Bit of Both, features a 48 in fridge, 48 in range, sink facing living/dining room, pantry, unfortunately there's no window.Total countertop space is roughly the same (22 ft)  in all three layouts.

Where are you living at this point?

Hopefully, not an expensive tenant or Fair Housing lawsuit.100% of what @Travis Biziorek states is true, but he left out a key fact - he lived in the Detroit area when he started investing here, so was able to self-manage and meet everyone he had to hire face-to-face.

The current owner lives there and had someone paying to a trailer in the back yard all the way in the back.
