He's getting everything we need as far as the cart, licenses and spot to work.

Congrats on the move to sunny southern Cali!!

Just as long as it's a positive return, lol.Next time you go to Hawaii, you have an extra spot for me in your luggage, lol. j/k

A little bit south - Belmar is a big tourist spot in the summer.

The sweet spot seems to be between 4%-5% for total commission (combined BA + SA).  

More on this later.Bathroom floor is soft in a few spots.

If you buy a triplex and spend all your capital, Murphy's law says three months later a hot water heater will go, a refrigerator will go and the roof will start to leak in that spot the home inspector said to "keep an eye on it but it's nothing to worry about."

I would use desert grasses to  landscape, like mexican feather grass (Nassella or Stipa tenuissima), and  plant a few New Mexico Privet trees for height if you can find a spot.

The main reasoning being that a family of 4 doped up daily on meth will most likely not want to face a sheriff entering their apt and arresting any or all of them on the spot for drugs or paraphernalia on their person or personal belongings.I do like the sound of that, but can't seem to find any clear 'flat fee' eviction services in this area (Long Beach/Signal Hill) or surrounding LA area.

I personally went into the attic today and I saw lots of damp spots on the insulation above the ceiling.
