The biggest variable, I believe is how we value the input capital into the real property, what I will spend to be able to sell.

biggest issues are -raising hoa fees-poorly run hoa-too many rental units in complex making it harder to sell with conventional financing.

They have the incentive to say that things are good , sale price is reasonable and units are occupied all the time.This part is something you kind of have to research on your own.Rentometer, Rentjungle and craigslist are good source to find average rent around the area.  

If they're paying, less incentive.

I use land trusts, but they can be complicated and my biggest issues is educating the end buyer about the power of those trusts.  

California is a great place to live in but not for buy n hold investors who are trying to maximize cash flow.My biggest advice is build a solid team in whichever market you end up going with!

With the biggest tenant at 13.67c!

I could possibly see it if he did a complete remodel and picked the all the contractors from the ones that had the biggest yellow page ads I think you could spend $150K.

A great incentive to settle after pulling that, who's on first in court.I really never felt the need to hide out too much, I did LLCs listing myself as the RA on a few.

Go to post office- pick up change of address forms, usually you get a moving packet/envelope with 10% off Lowes coupon (along with other moving incentives)take and I use my citi rewards card gain a ton of points and bought a new range with my points for one of my units (got 25 year old stove in one) with the new appliances I just increased rent and the tenant is very happy to pay the increase.
