Even if you have to delay your career for family, improving you capital position is never a waste of time.

I also noticed that the house possible needs kitchen work and the bathrooms do too.

:"No later than 21 calendar days after the tenant has vacated the premises, but not earlier than the time that either the landlord or the tenant provides a notice to terminate the tenancy under Section 1946 or 1946.1, Section 1161 of the Code of Civil Procedure, or not earlier than 60 calendar days prior to the expiration of a fixed-term lease, the landlord shall furnish the tenant, ...a copy of an itemized statement... and shall return any remaining portion of the security to the tenant."

It's 60 day notice where this property is so should l hold him to that?

We finally gave a 30 day notice to that remaining tenant & after a new kitchen of used cabinets, a new $100 tub (she cracked the cheap original) we got an extra $275/month.

People on BP will tell you they never invest unless they get 1% or hundreds of dollars in positive cash flow and I will tell you those who invested in Central Austin the past 5 years have made way more money, in negative cash flow, than all those 1%ers. 

Obviously by losing a full units rent, the numbers are now low but are still in the positive.

Give boss notice.

However, I notice that these ‘ghetto’ LA Zip codes tend to have high monthly rental asking prices.

But any additional positive feedback and tips are much appreciated.
