Investing In California ?

I have been listening to different podcasts and some mention that high-end competitive markets like Orange County, California could make it difficult to start an investing business. Is this true?

ADUs are really the best play for California right now because those particular laws are trending in favor of the homeowner with some limitations. Gabe Cole does high end flips in the OC and around there and has for years, but deals are harder to come by and you have to go high to get the spread. Barbara Isabel is a great person for LA as well as her investors focus on multifamily construction options.

Basically, if you are looking to invest in CA in any way, you need a solid amount of capital to even think about it and then you will still probably decide on somewhere else.
