SoCal properties do not cash flow... what to do?

[Account Closed]

I have probably looked at hundreds of MLS listings over the past couple of years. Interested in acquiring another residential multi-family (2-4 units). Rarely if ever do I see anything that cash flows. Gross rents - Principle/interest/taxes/insurance generally results in a loss of $1-2k or more monthly.

I own properties in the same area that I purchased many years ago which cash flow remarkably well.  Is now no longer the right time to invest in southern california?  Or am I not looking in the right places for deals?
