How would you do this in a big city like LA.?

cash buyer with $300k. any deals yielding over 10% in high growth urban cities/college towns?

I recently acquired a 4 families property in Union City NJ.  

Are you familiar with the city?

For example, I used to live in Berkeley, CA, where it is extremely difficult to evict tenants, even when the owners want to move back to the unit, sometimes the city would ask the owner to find other homes if tenants have been living there for some time.

Anybody from a major city that only has cash that can’t be verified in any way would immediately tell me they are a drug dealer or stripper or worse

Then a “guru”  that’s on yotube that’s in my city  said he’s licensed so when I looked him up, I found out his license is suspended and he has an open complaint against him.

Baldwin county alone has four cities in the top 10 for fastest in growth in the state.

San Diego is a great city!

If water came up through the drains, complain to the City of Chicago about poor/malfunctioning  sewers.If water came in due to collapsed/clogged drain pipes.
