One can always argue that the quality of properties may be better in CA, but I'm of the belief that quantity has a quality of its own.  

LOL... now maybe when the politicos can't get their bottle of Silver Oak or Screaming Eagle they will take note.. but Trump does not abide so he does not care LOL.When I grew up in Cupertino as kids we cut apricots picked cherries etc etc.in Oregon folks my age used to pick berries  Blue  Bosyn black you name it.now get a 16 YO off his smart phone or computer game and put him or her out in the fields..

- There A LOT of other deal types that require little cash and are easier to do than lonnie deals.Alternatives:- buy the park- buy MHs on their own land (we own 20 or so, all are on rent to own, seller will finance to up the quality of the tenant and reduce turn over).- Stay away from MHs all together:  direct mail expired listings of nicer homes in good school districts with the deal type being lease / option or buying subject to.

It is hard to leave and area with great profit margins, but quality of life in a warm climate is more important to me and I don't like owning small properties from a distance personally (because I never had to).I am looking for large multi-family moving forward.

Who have you had the best experiences with in terms of quality, prices, speed, and relationship?

Hi,My friend suggested me to use a quality management software for my company.

Vacants are actually vacant, common areas, turn over quality, matching expenses with whats actually done, capital improvements etc.

There are some very creative ways to stretch 100k-200k to buy several quality properties in a responsible and expedited fashionFinally, you'll want to consider what each Turnkey Company can offer you.
