In my area the person who conducts the bidding for the property is an agent of the trustee. 

@Jason Ma many Quantitative Analyst conduct these studies in conjunction with economist, the problem you face are the limitless variables that can be used to skew the data to reflect what you want of what you don't want to see.You can go far down the rabbit hole on this topic, keep in mind that there are thousands of variables associated with wage growth.

But my hope is that after rehab, as long as I have made all necessary repairs/updates and conducted proper tenant screening, all my properties should be relatively hassle free. 

However, anything that is not a life safety issue or other potential hazard that will land you in court should simply be marked "noted" on the list.I would also urge you to conduct a pre-move-in inspection done EVERY time you get a new tenant and conduct a pre-moveout inspection at every lease end as well.  

Hi all, I'm currently conducting research for a novel in which the main character is pursuing financial independence.

If that is the case, then I would like to conduct some due diligence on the properties before presenting an offer.

I have conducted other analysis where more variables are taken into consideration such as what the rent price should be for multi units with a certain square footage.  

I will be conducting research, as I am probably to thorough sometimes.Thanks again for the help and any other advice is greatly appreciated.

Your CA LLC would have to be registered as a foreign LLC with the Pennsylvania Dept of State to conduct business within PA.

Now since no research at all has been conducted on like how you bought your house, you've given all realtors another I told you so moment.
