What are the challenges and opportunities in staffing for assisted living facilities in New Jersey and New York, considering local labor markets?

They rentals do okay its just that I have to property manage them due to a day job so that cuts out $830 in cash flow. 

I think you'd be better off getting a part-time job to earn another $1,500 a month.

I don't need a downpayment because I have yet to utilize my VA home loan, I want another townhouse or SFH in the San Fernando Valley because of where my job is currently located, just makes everything way more convenient for myself.

If you  have a W2 job you will not qualify for full time REI if that is what you are asking.

I've been hitting the payment on how to get this done the property located in Opportunity Zone, so far I've research FHA 203k loans, Commercial Mortgages and HUD/FHA mMF loans.

Well my story on how I got connected into real estate started at my old cooperate job.

Are you looking for a value add opportunity through renovation?

I have 2 more friends with me, we recently graduated from university and after seen the current market for the jobs we have decided to move forward with this and we have plans to be low cost creative by our food, offers and social media.Currently I have no plan for the employees as I will be running and managing the store by myself.

It is partly your job to "sell" him on it, and partly an education and relationship-building game from your end.Also, take a look at the buildings history, when it has last sold for, if it has bounced around on the market or not etc.
