Again, IMO, a safe expectation.4. 1% rule properties anywhere close to Los Angeles are tough to find.

I invest in good safe areas around Atlanta, and I still have difficulties finding decent tenants.  

Sending John a list doesn't  via email doesn't appear safe to me.  

@Curtis Lipsey @Sarah Lindberg  If you know what you're doing and approach virtual real estate deals using a safe strategy, you can work deals as easily as if you were working them in your own neighborhoods. 

An exception would be extensive storm damage that goes beyond the surface and affects multiple areas.The most common repairs performed on roofs include:90-95 percent occur around flashingBlown- Off or loose shinglesPonding water due to insufficient protective measuresPunctures or penetrations relegated to a single areaShingles that are curling upwards may mean there are leaks underneath the surface or that water is getting into parts of a roof where it shouldn’t be going. roofs with curled shingles often need to be replaced within 1-5 years.Complete replacement is typically recommended when:Damage extends below a roof’s surface layerRepairs are becoming increasingly frequentBald spots are showing up where granules( materials that provide added protection to a roof) are missingA roof is more than 20- 25 years old or has undergone too many re-roofs to make re-roofing a safe option againAn existing roof was poorly installed or not installed according to codeRoof replacement doesn’t necessarily mean completely tearing off an existing roof and starting over from scratch.

Anybody doing anything nontraditional safe to see their rankings climb higher, faster? 

To be safe, consider double closing on wholesale deals.

A safe guard of sorts I guess.   

So feeling safe and secure because you have a million dollar umbrella liability policy is not so great when you get sued for 10 million. 

Of course - you need to make sure you look out for the best interests of the HOA - keeping a safe and secure place for other neighbors in the building.
