Here's an update: On July 14 we finally got administrative rights to the estate. 3 days later, we sat down with her and our realtor and offered her a very generous relocation package amounting to six months rent if she moved out that weekend.

Hello I am currently a 21 year old trying to practice doing rental analysis on rental properties mostly on duplexes and some SFH.

I've been thinking for a few years about cashing out here in my primary residence and relocating somewhere cheaper, like Las Vegas and living there for the long term.

@Erwin Miciano   Erwin -  Hours were a little more stable -  government  civilian job , so no more getting uo at 6 to do PT :)  and at 5:01 was practically a ghost town  so as others have said above -   a good way to transition  as they like vets. 

Anyone learned from bad experiences and now have some best practices? 

Unforeseen / Other Parameters - Weather, large scale transformations such as an industry collapse or relocation, etc.Do you guys have any other things you look into before choosing your new investment zip code? 

I also made a goal of analysing 1 to 5 properties every day (even if I don't plan on actually buying any) as practice (unless I find a truly amazing deal).I've learned more about accounting in the last 2 weeks than I did in my entire Bcomm lol

Is anyone currently practicing this method in this area? 

If it's a remote single entity LLC guaranty then practically worthless.I have seen in the past where a client had a tenant with a personal guarantee.

I am considering relocating to San Antonio, TX from Portland, OR.
