market selection - newbie in San Diego

[Brian Bartelsmeyer]

Hi Everyone! 

I am an investor (using this term loosely) in San Diego who has 1 rental property here that is cash flowing (used to live in it then moved out). 

Im interested in aggressively growing my  real estate portfolio over the next year plus but I dont believe San Diego is the area to do that (obviously). So I was hoping to play a fun game with anyone interested! My ultimate goal is to focus on cash flow over appreciation. 

Lets say someone gave you 300K to do whatever you wanted to with in real estate investing. How would you invest it and in which markets? Would you choose to buy up a bunch of SFH's or would you look at maybe 1-2 multi family units?

Looking forward to reading responses!
