Because I don’t want to invest 100% of the $800,000 in real estate, I am thinking of keeping:10% ($80,000) in savings10% ($80,000) in bonds 30% ($240,000) with financial institutions to invest in mutual funds, index funds, and stocks, And the remaining 50% ($400,000) in real estate.My goal is to allocate $200,000 of this $400,000 to acquire a combination of SFR, BRRRR properties and possibly duplex/triplexes throughout the next year or two.

Many people here are looking for cashflow properties, and that's a rare thing in CA. 

I rarely read real estate books any more.

A JV agreement is rarely need when everyone is happy and on the same page.

You need a bit more spread anyway between purchase price and ARV - combined usually 80 to 100k, roughly half of it is rehab, half is equity.

In San Francisco, a "traditional" suburban driveways are rare and are often times confused with the sidewalk portion in front of the building.
