But BP Podcast 73 with Mehran Kamari opened my eyes to out of state investing when you're faced with a local market like LA so long as you have "boots on the ground" in the other state.For someone like me who is just starting off, with a decent income, should I go for the expensive LA rental if the numbers somehow miraculously work or is it wiser to partner and look towards out of state hot spots given the full time job situation?

One instance - they used to cut me a check each month, then it miraculously went to three months which would have been fine with me had they had the decency to tell me.

yes another point is that many people approach the whole LLC phenom as if the LLC, by itself will miraculously solve all of their challenges and put to rest all fears.

I used to see a lot of new people stalking the really good players asking for coaching/being their new best friend, hoping that a coaching session would miraculously turn them into elite level poker players.  

Unless you have the unicorn block basement that miraculously does not leak through the cracks, you have water in those cores whether it's noticeable from the inside or not (it's what it does).

I would check credit scores and criminal background check all these tenants they managed to miraculously add.

Running the numbers even if I miraculously got one of these houses for 20% below market value for say $130...the numbers still don't add up to a good positive cash flow.

They can miraculously be "lost" "eaten by the dog" or "stolen by aliens" who never seem to take them back to their space ship but only as far as the nearest pawn shop.

Miraculously find a comp or two that almost supports the asking price6.

I am almost certain the answer is yes.This document was also not provided to me as of yet, but miraculously my last several transactions (with other lenders) I had the appraisal in hand before escrow closed.
