And I'm not talking with no experience on this, I have 3 kids going onto 4 here in a week, have a dozen small businesses, and 40 + houses.

Curious how your experience has been. 

@Rabia Khan leverage buyers agent experience. look for HOA cash reserves, check how old or recent HVAC is, kitchen appliances etc. the more recent and updated they are, the better it is for you as you dont have to invest in maintenance or capital expenditures.

From my own experience I can tell you, those investments are better suited to local owners. 

Welcome to BP - jumping in and getting the experience on deal #1 is a huge step - most don't make it that far!

Looks like they're trying to revive the old Prop 10 legislation from previous ballots and renamed it the "Justice for Renters Act" -->"Justice for Renters Act" Just another reason why I'm glad I'm not investing in CA.Happy to share my experiences.

We are new to real estate investing, but bring a wealth of experience from our military backgrounds and are eager to learn all we can.

Forced appreciation, appreciation, tax savings, principal paydown and (the most valuable in my opinion) experience. 

I have learned from this experience and ensured clear communication for any future changes.Despite these past mistakes, I have maintained a stable and productive life.

I don’t have much experience as I’m hunting my first deal.
