The checkout clerks at the supermarket, however, don't care if the money I use to pay for my groceries comes from salary income, stock dividends, savings account interest, bond interest, real estate rents, or capital gains.

Annual tax is $4512, the area is up coming close to transportation and supermarkets.

Finally I give them a gift card for $50 to a supermarket like Vons.  

Having always loved looking at open houses as a kid, and currently always chasing the best deals around multiple supermarkets on any given day, I am looking forward to the challenges, lifestyle, and possibilities of real estate investing.I plan on doing some wholesaling deals initially to get experience making deals.
