I am not in LA, but since it has been two days with no local answers for you, I have some tipsWhat you want is a high volume landlord tenant attorney.

zonesage.com is a quality option.

Below is my high level numbers -Property cost: 500k - 600k, Rehab cost - 100k - 150k, so total project cost: 600k - 750k.Please let me know your thoughts. 

I would just hire a quality general contractor, for example we have weekly updates via company cam photo and video documentation.

(square footage, facing direction, driveway position, quality of finishings etc). 

Low inventory, high demand.

In the cities that I would like to live in, the prices are pretty high and most house hacks would be difficult to come close to cash flowing even with all units tenant occupied if I use my 0% down VA Loan.

Scott, I would HIGHLY recommend going some details and running some examples through it so people can make an informed decision on which one to use.

However, I recognize I still have much to learn.I would highly value advice from veteran investors on finding the right opportunities, understanding regulations, financing projects, and overall best practices.

Risk isn't like a stock, you're not looking at beta you're looking at quality of neighborhood you're purchasing, interest rate, rental liquidity, etc.
