Assume the property is well located with average appreciation ...Selling some properties of mine and just curious what the average investor buyer is thinking ...Thanks guys I wouldn't personally recommend deliberately buying a property you believe will be negative cash flow.

Seems that I need to buy the 14 inch rough in toilets (which is hard, because only few models are available at Home Depot and Lowes, since this is a non-standard size).

Quote from @Shiv Panda: You can buy them online, maybe even at large box stores like Home Depot, Lowes, or other appliance retailers.I did a search for "commercial washer dryer card operated" and came up with many sites that sell them.

Hi, Im looking to buy a house in southern california and received approval for investment loan for investment property that is a single family unit home.

It never made sense to me that people buy rentals and immediately hire out the most important factor of its success (the management) to a 3rd party who likely takes 10% plus other fees.  

At the same time it's probably best to be buying right now to hedge against inflation?

Would you ever consider buying a home without a garage?

Should I insist they inspect first so that we aren’t placed under contract in case they don’t want to buy?

Investment Info:Single-family residence buy & hold investment.

If you do not work there anymore you can move the funds to a Self-Directed IRA and have the IRA buy real estate.
