The properties are so expensive due to the land that if you need a mortgage you’re going to be cashflow negative, and the laws are so anti-landlord that I’m not sure it would be smart to buy here regardless.How are you going about finding your seller financed and subject too opportunities?

I would determine if the new CA anti-squatter law applies (do the research now).  

Someone who is good at sales and marketing can make a few deals quick, but then the buyers they sold to hate them because their numbers were off or they lied and the sellers catch wind of it.I am not as anti-wholesale as many, but I am anti-lying and deceiving which is what a lot of them do.

We're homesteaders so we need at least 2 acres (a little harder to find with multifamilies) and we also have an anti-social 70lb dog.The appeal of renting our current house is that it's a really great location for a rental and we know everything about the property and know that we would get positive cash flow.

The rules are totally pro-scarcity and anti development, that's an excellent business venture if I am pouring in billions. 

I for one am not anti paid coaching I have made significant income over the years helping students that learned from Lyndahl / Montalongo / Vertucci  / rich dad  etc etc... lets face it like anything 5 to 10% that pay for mentoring it was worth it to them they went on and did deals.. to the other %  its just anything real estate related  they lose interest and just don't do anything.at the end of the day these are pretty straight forward transactions with well document due diligence check lists one goes through to determine if the deals will work or not. 

AML and Foreign Entity regulationsAML is anti money laundering.

Well I never thought I would be the one saying something like this......but I have a recent good news story about a warranty company.Based on an experience over 30 years ago, I have been on the anti-warranty bandwagon and even run them down on this forum, but:I bought a house last summer (primary home) and the sellers agent threw in a Home Warranty.

It's no where near anti trust levels. 82k units is a drop in the bucket.

It'll help with stress and also sweating will allow you to remove toxins from your body.
