I am finishing up my first fix-n-flip deal and am looking to connect with others and see what value we can bring to each other while learning about other markets in the US.

I research on social media, came up a list than make an intro call to each one of them.

Even if he won't sign a new lease, I would simply post this on his door advising him of the new rental rate, take a picture of it, and save it for possible future need if you have to file for eviction.

there are costs at every step - costs to buy, costs to hold and costs to sell. 

Hey, what's up everyone,I am new to the real estate investing game.

We used to send it much earlier, but we had guests showing up a day before thinking they could get an extra night.

They both signed the lease.

Although the cost of the house is more upfront the value goes up faster and renting is fairly quicker in california.
