Some of the people seeing success today are just getting lucky, so one bad tenant and the tide shifts.

I have been thinking about shifting the two that I own outright under a LLC. 

Nearly all of our investment purchase products are shifting over to the Non QM space where we can do no income/tax return programs on investment properties however you will be paying a premium. 

I have one long-term rental and one short-term rental and am looking to shift into this full time over the next few years.

Our frustrations come from trying to fix and change all these things we do not control.Instead, shift your focus to the TWO THINGS in life you can control:Your attitude and your effort!

I would personally recommend shifting your strategy to sell your Ohio investment property and get yourself a property to house hack in LA.

I was also able to do this in person which made it a little more comfortable for me as I wasn’t providing them copies of anything.In today’s scam heavy society I think a potential tenant has the right to verify who the landlord claims to be at lease signing.

I am liking the idea but I am really concerned if something big shifts.

I picked up extra shifts with the fire department, did odd jobs around town and even donated plasma to save up the capital I needed to make my next purchase.

I think @Jay Hinrichs is missing is locally I am seeing such a dramatic shift that has not been seen before.
