Get ready for the move by learning all you can about real estate, how to manage property, different ways to pay for it, and what's happening in the St.

I'd recommend talking to at least 2 Property Management companies in Sacramento to see what rents are going for condos.

I spoke with my managing broker, and he gave me the green light!

First, learn about ways to make money last, set your aims, grasp house hacking, check if you're ready money-wise, do deep market checks, make friends with local home investors, agents, lenders, and those who manage properties, go deep into property details, and get to know the local home laws well.

You can send out monthly emails, set up automations, and most importantly manage your leads with their sales hub. 

Following David Green's Core 4 strategy (realtor, contractor, property manager, and lender) gives confidence to invest anywhere.

And all the new ones are bought with 1031 money and professionally managed by someone other than me. 

If you only need the $90k, are you obligated to take the $100k (so the bank receives more interest)?

I manage my sign company and do lending full time. 

I'm not sure how the flipping landscape is in SF, but my hunch is if you can manage in a HCOL blue city like SF - you'll be successful here too LOL!
