Do a rent-market study to understand what you'll be able to charge.

In the meantime i am studying and preparing myself for sfr investing.   

What to study?...

Hi, I am in SF City and seeking the latest edition (2010 or higher) of the official CALIFORNIA DEPARTMENT OF REAL ESTATE "Reference Book - A Real Estate Guide".This 600-page study guide is available for free on their website in PDF form, or $20 for a print version (which takes many weeks to ship).I need it quite fast, and am hoping someone here has a used copy they want to sell.I'll pay $20 (check or paypal) if you can drop off in person, or mail, it to me in SF.

So for the last month or so I have been studying real estate and I think I have come to the conclusion that i want to get away from the single door and small commercial strip centers we have and move towards multi family/apartment complexes.

I’m in no rush to make any purchases and am looking to spend 2H2020 to study the market and start making offers in 1Q2021. 

Study your landlord tenant laws and give proper notice, unless you like to get hit with triple damages.

Another method is using subject to or seller financing to acquire additional properties down the line, but you'd want to study up on that and make sure you know what you're doing.A lot of folks who don't have a lot of working capital start out as wholesalers, so that's another option if you know how to valuate properties and rehab costs and can really communicate well with people.

Keep studying and saving.
