Rimforest, CA is a less desirable area to rent as not many people seek it out.

To us, the security of it being in all partners names (through the LLC) and the ease of a partner getting out if desired is easier too, as shares of the LLC can just be sold with no refinancing needed.

My name is Billy Norcilien and I am recent college graduate (Florida State University 2017, BS I.T.) and I currently work as a software developer but I have fallen in love with BP and it has only increased my desire to get into real estate.

Also, you can increase the earnest money (to prove you are a serious buyer), you can be closer to their list price, you can play with the closing costs, you can waive professional inspection etc.. there are a lot of other things to make your offer more desirable to sellers! 

If your CA property is making you money and is in a desirable neighborhood, do a Heloc or cash out refi and move that money elsewhere. 

Since you can’t control the other parties needs, wants, expectations, desires, etc. a great part of the success in concluding a deal is out of your control.My advise may be different than what many others would suggest; I would determine what price and terms make it a good deal for me, and then try to determine if that would also make it a good deal for the seller, based on his needs and wants.I’ve never been comfortable with the “let’s work out a mutually beneficial solution” approach, though that approach is in vogue, and some people have had success with that approach.Over a 40 plus year real estate career, investing my money in over 500 deals in which I was the primary deal maker, I have found it much easier, efficient and profitable to make an offer based on my wants, and let the seller respond.

I liken it to children not getting the answer they desire from dad so they go to mom and beg to hope for a different answer.

This was an OK deal in a desirable neighborhood .

Due to the fact most towns were born out of a local mill or local mine there can be a huge swing in desirability and price in a very short distance.
