@Alecia Loveless many of the towns and cities in Connecticut have these things called Fair Rent Commissions.If you raise the rent too much and the tenant brings a complaint to their local Fair Rent Commission.

In the future, have a process for security deposit return that complies with your local laws and follow it.

Well if you really want to do it right, you should speak to a local PM or lawyer who has done it before.

There are about 2,000 members in the local REIA which charges $20 a month to be in, and I know of several other investment groups that are over the top charging upwards of $20,000 to join, but who is "Actually buying"?

@Ian Radcliffe 1. yes, you can do land flipping while working a 9-5 just like you can become a local real estate developer in your community while working a 9-5. 2. the less time you have the more strategic partners you'll need on your team to execute 3. there are a lot of courses out there and I'd recommend talking with a land flipper and/or their team prior to buying the course just to make sure expectations are aligned There are quite a lot of other nuances around it but if you're curious and you do some research you can definitely make it happen. 

@Doreen LinderHappy to connect and discuss the local rental restrictions for STR's on the Gulf Coast.

We welcome any suggestions or insights you may have.Additionally, if anyone has information on the approximate cost of building a duplex and triplex in California, we would greatly appreciate your input.To provide context, neighboring properties in the area we bought offer insights into the local housing market.

Landlording from a distance should be done with local property management.

Will they charge for inspections, how soon do you have to give notice in the event you want to cancel and what would the buy out look like for the contract?
