I lived in Saint Louis for most of my 20s (and grew up in the general area), but even after being gone for over 10 years, I wouldn't trust my ability to pick locations outside of the no brainer A-B areas.I hit my FI number and have left my "golden cuffs"; I don't know your situation, but I what I can probably promise you is that it is going to take longer and be more difficult than you expect. 

Hello everyone, I have lived in Los Angeles since 2007and have no plans of leaving, although the state taxes are brutal.

1) Use a solid title company that won't insure everything 2) Buy only from legit and solid wholesalers / agents 3) If you can find out if the real seller still lives in the home that is helpful  -  get the story and try to do a little investigation yourself 4) Make sure the seller has a real and recent water bill - We can help you with that also so you don't get stuck with $2000 or more after closingI hope this helps you all because it is an amazing city to invest in.  

I thought I was going to live on it for a while but that's not longer the case.

Growing up in a household with 6 siblings and parents working hard to survive living in California I became very observant of what others were doing to make money.

One of our team members who lives in Michigan has agreed to take on the cleaning/turnover themselves, but we know this isn't a sustainable business model.For those of you in the area doing AirBNB/VRBO, how are you managing turnover?

Most companies have living benefits for these kinds of policies.

Something’s not right there… did anyone else that doesn’t live in Fl that has the lot/s in their parents or families name not changed over to them with some information that also can be done that they didn’t put in the letter?

@Julianne Salamone I'm a Canadian now living in Florida and investing full-time down here. 

For deal 1 is the ADU able to be used for living space?
