So I might have a property in CA that I hope will appreciate, some property in Utah where the market is less volatile, some in Memphis for cash flow, but if FedEx goes bankrupt or moves overseas I don't want all my eggs in the Memphis basket so maybe I buy a few properties in Texas, and I like visiting Vegas so have some properties there for tax deductible trips to sin city!  

(do I come straight from work, or eat beforehand?)

The insurance eats up cash flow.

My friend Mike says he'll mail before he eats so stopping ought not be a choice.

I have a decent 'nest egg' that I would like to continue to house hack and use FHA loans as I go.All thoughts welcome.Thank you

Same goes for most investments; it's tough to recommend putting all your eggs in one basket.Anyway, hope this info helps.Best of luck,Dave

I personally don't like manufactured homes and at that price point, the HOA fee for the condos will eat half your rent. 

Maybe this is a good thing but I would like anyone from the community to help me going forward.Im thinking I should let her break the lease eat the cost for the winter time while fixing the property and then during the spring rent it out.
