I’m all about being positive, but I think reality is a good perspective as well.

With a 3k a month interest only payment(10.75% Interest, 2.5 points origination, supposed to be paid off mid Feb), 3k in monthly bills, and 14k in cash left AFTER investing 90k of my own money in the deal, you can see the terrible position I'm in now.

But sometimes being sued is enough of a motivation to cause someone relent a  position.

If yes, that's mostly positive since they will have a better understanding of your interests as an investor.

I’m looking for advise on what kind of deal I should be looking for and how to put myself in a position to find it.

Seems like a cheap/affordable way to start.It looks like I could have some positive cashflow as I learn and save more money to do bigger and better investments.

Let them know that you are trying to build a positive financial future for yourself and/or your family via rental property.

I've been analyzing deals in my local market, but there's not a lot of potential for positive cash flow.

Eventually, after you have their trust ask for a paid position if you think one exists or ask to volunteer.

I am positive that Anaheim has not updated its ADU requirements as most of the employees there still think I will need four 18' parking spots in the driveway.
