Wow, I didn’t realize you had that many units. Spot on target with your advice. Property management is a really tough and time intensive business.
I’m not sure the answer to your question about how quickly it takes to evict someone in San Diego but I’m sure it’s not that quick like San Diego.
I was curious, is it possible to rent to the poorer groups there and get the government to pay? What you said about Hispanic tenants I’ve also heard from some friends that own properties in Texas. They talk about the same things you do about being hard workers, loyal and good family values.
One of my friends in New Mexico bought several cheaper properties and he said he is able to bill the government that pays for their rent. Some form of public assistance. IIRC, my friend in Texas also got some of that.
Have you had the ability to do that in Arizona at all? Do all your tenants pay themselves or are any of them on public assistance where you can bill the government?
