Welcome to BP community, Jonathan! 

Hopefully, this first investment will launch our journey in real estate.Here are some criteria we have in mind:Not in downtown SacramentoClass C+ or B location, since we will be living in one unit (we just want a safe location)Units with shared walls, not ceilingsSeparately meteredFairly renovated or well-maintained (not a fixer-upper, but if one unit is renovated and the others need some work, we would love the experience of fixing and renovating)Can you think of any other factors we should consider?

Would you care to share any more details?

I run the FB group Philadelphia Landlords Connect -2000+ small investors who have a variety of experiences that they share and help each other to find good contractors, navigate city laws... 

Happy to answer any questions you might have and share some of my OOS investing experiences. 

Do you share such data every month?      

Can anyone share details with me?

I'll probably update when it closes but I am curious of others' experiences in the meantime.Hi Michelle, Yes I purchased a property at Bennah Oaks too so happy to meet you and share our experiences.

Additionally, I proposed introducing new retail products, and the owner has offered me a 40% share in return for my expertise in retail.
