I recommend CA residents look at Reno, Nevada because of the proximity, landlord friendly, low property taxes, and influx of high wage jobs and strong appreciation. 

I have started analyze the deal and am still working on the details. monthly costs are roughly $1300Potential income is between 8k-9k dependingcurrently only 1 lot active at 950/mnth9 others with mobile homes in need of repair - cost of rehab of all units could be up to 100klot rent would go from 300-400 per without homes in this area seems like a pretty high upside and not very low downside to the deal.

First I found it to show low rates, now I'm seeing them high.  

In addition, if anyone has spreadsheets or services they highly recommend for beginners.

From that point, some sort of banking engine would need to be involved that was sophisticated enough to handle and understand trivial to highly complicated financial transactions.In any case, it would be fascinating to a small niche of people (myself included) so not too likely to become a commercial success.

I know that it takes time to rank highly on Google.

Hi Cody,There are non-QM loans that can qualify you for self-employment income with high DTI.

Oregon has the housing and has the draw for quality of life to bring in top talent that's a given..

I don't think you run the risk of not being able to fill that vacancy because rental demand for a $1k apartment is very high with very low inventory for that rental price point.Hope that helps!

South Tampa: This area is a classic choice and is constantly in demand for quality neighborhoods like Hyde Park.
