Looks for developing areas and where you can build wealth to meet your goals, energy, and capital. 

That last one will be the hardest for me, I am not usually a social person.

There are currently 23 states (as of last count a couple of weeks ago) that enforce this law.I know this because we just locked up 2,500 SFR's in your state (in Orlando, to be specific) that are past the redemption period (bank did not pay delinquent HOA dues), and the same law group that won the case in Nevada in front of Supreme Court (see link below) is handling the conversion into Warranty Deeds.

Time and money for an eviction in CA is our last option, and not ideal.

Also, does the basement have the legal height you can run into underpinning and digging out the basement (Some moving parts - there could be piping in the basement floor, etc.)Lastly, If you finish the basement and not approved and permits pulled correctly.

Would love to connect and learn more about specifically what your investment goals are.

Last thing you want is to not be able to get the renter out especially if you are on a hard money loan.

I did one last year 2' in 500sf basement total cost 17k, I subbed out all the work as a GC.

The end of last year I agreed to purchase a property out of the area for 30 K. 

When I spoke with him last week, he said " we were going to the prop today to do all the flooring, but there is so much traffic due to all the people that want to see the eclipse"?
