Other than that is was a piece of cake.

I like it to hit metrics going in and the other stuff is icing on the cake.

Eventually they'll have to choose between having their cake or eating it...

Basically, if you are buying and holding rental property and you have positive cashflow, then buying next to each other , instead of just all over the place, can have some icing on the cake in the future. 

Within a 50 mile drive of Los Angeles City alone there are more than 10 major 200k+ population independent cities like Irvine, Long Beach, Anaheim, Glendale etc.  

I see some really nice condos for sale there although they sell like hot cakes.

Just because YOU don't like fruit cake Phillip, doesn't mean you have to complain about it to everyone that will listen.

It will be interesting what happens in Anaheim CA [ who vehemently deny STR] what their tune changes.

You cannot have your cake and eat it, too, which would be a management company without management fees.

Sure I'll make more off 2 tenants over 1, but I was just curious if the added expenditures of the additional tenant might begin to make the additional cash flower seem less worthwhile.I will be managing my own du/tri plex for now... that will be a piece of cake.
