Totally agree. BTW, there are plenty of positive cash flow properties, just not in north county. South bay has some good options. If you want to go farther, Fresno have some starter homes for $60-80k and can be rented for about $850-1000. PITI would be around $320-420 w/ 30% down ($18-24k). That’s profit of $400-700/month. It’s in the “ghetto” area though, but it’s out there.

You mean in 70-80 years, they’ll be filthy rich from their property investments?
