Tips for out of state investing for 1st deal? CA is so expensive!

[Tanya Torres]

New to the BP Community and I have been diving in head first into research, podcasts & books to purchase my first investment property. I live in california & im wondering if it would make more sense to look for out of state properties as opposed to starting here given how expensive the market is here?

Any tips/suggestions/opinions are welcomed! Genuinely open to hearing voices of experience!
