Please read, because apparently as a Landlord now I must accept a murderer, who was evicted, assaulted someone in the first degree, committed arson and robbery all in one. 

HelloI own a multi-family out of state and moved to ca due to a job change and have been contemplating about investing in East Oakland perhaps by doing a 1031 exchange.How is East Oakland from a cash flow perspective?

Thats something I've been contemplating myself given the current market conditions.  

I would love to know if this is possible, as I have been contemplating the same as well, but I am in South Bay, where 1.5 would probably get a town home.

Hi all,I’d like to get 1 purchase under my belt for this year to start my RE investor journey. I know I want to get a multi family rental for cash flow, will utilize a traditional lender, and am willing to rehab/renov...

Contemplating converting to traditional mortgage beforehand.

I’m actually contemplating on buying propstream because it comes with a lot of perks.

(Also contemplating ponying up the extra money if new constructions are only ~40k more expensive than comparable 40+ year old properties.

I've been contemplating the idea of offering a referral fee to any agents or brokers that bring us new clients/properties, but want to make sure I'm not breaking any laws. 

@Patrice Bocci I had been contemplating the same most recently.
