Right now, I’m looking to connect with experienced investors — people actually doing the work — to learn from, trade ideas with, and get a better feel for what’s working in today’s market.

In your experience, do you find that it's possible to cashflow or at least break even with these properties and today's prices/rates?

I have a deal with them right now that was supposed to close today which is not happening.

Creative financing strategies like seller financing and subject-to can absolutely work in San Diego, especially in today’s high-rate environment — but they tend to be more relationship-driven and off-market.

What has genuinely made your day-to-day easier in terms of:Tenant communication & portalsRent collectionMaintenance requests & trackingAccounting & financial reportingTenant screening processesIf you have firsthand experience running a property management business, or if you've hired one, I'd genuinely appreciate any insights into what has worked well (or, equally important, what hasn't).

In todays day and age, virtual is the way to go as you greatly expand your talent pool.

You can bump up your upper limit higher then you need today assumng you have the room to do it on based on the value of the home in case you have more cashj needs in the future.

But today many title companies unless they really know you will not insure self prepared transfers.

With that said, like so many areas of the country, the numbers do not work at today's prices. 

I’m in the lending space and always happy to exchange ideas  feel free to connect if you want to talk through what might work in today’s market.
