I'm working on a new investment property. 

Making an emotional purchase decision on an investment property and ignoring the numbers. 

I recommend buying a turnkey long-term rental on your first out-of-state deal.

I have to do a lot of due diligence each time because of my traveling cost.Once again thank you very much for the update.

Short-term rentals would be a solution, but due to strict short-term rental laws in rent-controlled areas of Los Angeles, options like Airbnb are typically not feasible.At present, I have a $5 million property in Encino with two units that we cannot rent out short-term due to rent control regulations, and the numbers don’t work for a long-term rental either.

Purchase price: $840,000 Cash invested: $285,000 Sale price: $1,200,000 Full renovation of all 4 units.

I have about $1M liquid currently but wouldn’t want to invest more than $200k on a property.

If you are building from scratch, see if you can buy a corner lot to build a duplex that has one driveway/garage on one street and the other on the other street-they look more like a large single family home until you go around the corner. 

Are there lenders that will do a cash out on a property with no mortgage?

Hi everyone, I am interested in hearing everyone's thoughts on the Platform Pacaso, I have noticed that it can inflate housing prices in some areas due to them being less concerned about paying a low price upfront and more focused on the overall profit they can generate through fractional sales and ongoing services.
