Just love the idea of someone streamlining everything for me in order to save time. 

Five bills made effective on January 1, 2020 have significantly streamlined the ADU construction and approval process.Plus: The budget agreement (enacted June 27th 2023) restores $50 million for the California Housing Finance Agency’s ADU Grant Program, which provides up to $40,000 to help cover the planning and permitting costs involved in an accessory dwelling unit.- BP thread relating to your question: https://www.biggerpockets.com/...- LA County has multiple different cities with different RSOs, so this will really depend.

Your guidance could significantly streamline my research process and help me make more informed decisions.Thank you in advance for sharing your experiences and advice.

I'm not sure how streamlined the permitting process is in Portland, but here in Southern CA, it can be very lengthy and challenging at times. 

We buy things in bulk, we have streamlined processes for each property, we do hundreds of these every year and we know what to look out for when vetting a property.

For me, I've realized and accepted that I'll still be working on my new OOS investment for quite a bit before it's more streamlined.

@Matt ArdenCall local mobile home movers for prices in your area.If someone moves a home you can replace it with either a new one or used one.

Downside protection is a big reason a lot of folks include CRE in their portfolio.I'd also argue that vetting Operators isn't THAT much more intensive than vetting funds, especially when you know the fundamentals of what to look for and can you streamline the process.

A few posts from the forums and now your insightful posts/responses streamlined steps helped me get past that.I’m now researching to get 1) Deal under contract and 4) business plan to close 1) including the value add/ asset management.If there is a MFR deal with 50k-70k and 25k in renovations I know I can get / have the finances aligned.
