The City of Los Angeles, broken and unable to fill pot holes in a timely manner, have only 70% of street light operating and relies on fraud against landlords since their fountain of wealth, Federal Government Support of Illegals, dried up with Trumps wisdom!

The City made up Violations against one of my many properties. Each time I've complied and had it inspected, months later I got notices that I never completed the work. The Judge, General Manager and other played this game.

Since I did all of the work and the City's phony records showed nothing was done, the city put this Property in REAP and had tenant pay they my rents, then put into escrow.

I finally got the Senor Inspector to come out and issued a COMPLETED PASS ON ALL ITEMS/Violations.

So I called the City to release the help rents and the clerk (Person in charge) could NOT FIND MY Property OR Case Number. None of the funds paid to the City by my tenants made it to the Trust Account. Instead it went into the pockets of politicians.

And this last inspection was supposed to be free. I just received a bill for that inspection. They love to pour salt on my wounds. --47.156.xxx.xx

I hear that property prices and landlord laws are quite reasonable in the center of the country - like maybe Indiana. --72.218.xx.xxx

Sooner or later, you will escape from there.

I sold out years ago when I saw how it was going. --174.84.xxx.xx

I want to sell. I gave pocket listings to some hot agents I know and got low balled, with a list of wanted upgrades. So I am raising rents by the allowable amount (3%) and giving things a face lift. Going to list them for sale by owner as installment loan, to save my 40% in taxes... --47.156.xxx.xx

DJ, I like you. But stop making my life worse. (ha ha)

I live in a good state, we do not need anything like that moving here. Besides, the outrageous lies would not go well here and someone moving in could get hurt. --47.227.xx.xxx

Hard to find sympathy when all you do is complain about CA, but you do nothing to change your situation. Folks are leaving CA in droves because of taxes and some of the other political happenings. Yet, you choose to stay. Valid choice, but it also takes away your ability to complain. At this point, you know what you're going to get. Accept it or do something to change it. --107.207.xx.xx

I wish what you say Dodge was true, that I do nothing to improve my situation. I spend half of my time tying to get out of things and improve/sale etc. I am working towards those goals. --47.156.xxx.xx

You've got enough money to cut bait and go fish in waters with better fish. Or less alligators. Not sure where that analogy goes.

I sold all of my CA properties about 15 years ago. Unlike Robert J, I was not any sh!t lists and was not being targeted by any public officials, but things were hard enough.

I even sold the condo I used to keep as my L.A. home; now I have to pack a suitcase and get a hotel room. --71.38.xx.xxx

Back in 2005, I attended a seminar by Bruce Norris. He and his news letter, always on the money, told us to sell our "worst" properties before the mortgage debacle tanks the market.

So I took his advice and sold Half of my smaller apartment buildings and a few single family homes.

I took Half of those proceeds and 1031'd into other than residential housing to save on TAXES. The other half I pocked the sales proceeds and paid taxes.

Since I took accounting in school and know about taxes, I saw that Long Term Capital Gains was going to go up. Federal and State. Fed from 15 to 20% max. State of CA from 9.3 to 13.3%.

Also coming was the affordable care tax of 2.9%. And AMT, adjusted minimal tax. So I saved myself around 12% in taxes by selling in 2004, 2005 and 2006.

Then in 2009 and 2011, at the bottom of the market cycle, I could by back what I sold, or the equivalent, for a steep discount. --47.156.xxx.xx
