Slow stable controlled growth of a portfolio lowers the risk as a broken furnace is spread across a greater cash flow base.  

Whether you are sacrificing your comfort to house hack, money for a downpayment to cash-flow more, or one of the wealth generators based on the market itself; there is no one-size-fits-all perfect investment.

You can't slam a mentorship just based on their price.

Unless it is a property you intend to live at and are not looking for a return, then base your decision on what the numbers tell you.

I work with a lot of CA-based investors who invest out of state.

If you have any doubt about it being occupied or not you could put a notice at the door and say that its your property and that you will enter on a given date.You probably should provide a phone number so people may  call you.
