Yes, I have been to one Meetup group called Roseville Real Estate Investing at Whitney Oaks Golf Club in Granite Bay.

So until they lose their shirts in the next down swing I have to live with them, again. 

There are no called strikes in investing, the only way you strike out is by swinging and missing so dont be afraid to let this deal go if it doesnt work with both repairs factored in.

Keep in mind that these attorneys probably play golf, poker, gym, whatever with 1-2 realtor friends who also have cash buyers. 

The problem with such a low rental point is that even if your expected fixed costs show it as profitable, it takes just a little swing in variable expenses to make this a consistent money loser.

JohnJohn, we put a contract on a gorgeous 3 acre lot with a creek in a golf community but the property would not perk due to the types of soils, so we went on down the road.

I'm trying to find the lowest possible monthly payments to help accomodate the possible renter, but here are the snags I'm running into with lenders: 1) if I buy the place as an investment, they require 10% down (which I don't have) 2)because of my particular circumstances, I can apply for the property as a second home, which only requires 5% down (that, I might be able to swing), but either a) the payments will be higher than what I'm looking for, b)my debt to income ratio is too high.

Not up to non-pandemic numbers yet, but it’s swinging back towards normal.

I've found that it takes longer to turn over SF between renters because either 1) there's just more stuff (more swinging doors, garages, bathrooms, etc) or 2) there are fewer qualified applicants at SF price point.Otherwise really great work!
