Is starting out in CA a good idea?

[Brian Sanchez]

I was born and raised and CA and have my family , I'm a new member and have listed to only a handful of podcasts so I'm sorry if this has been covered. I want to begin by buying units going FHA owner occ. I don't currently own but I hear these podcasts of people in other parts of the U.S. buying units for a fraction of the cost that I could ever dream of finding in Orange county. So my question is, would it be wise to begin buying out of state instead?

Other areas that sell homes for 80k offer better options and yes pickings are slim here  but there are deals out there. You need patience and a good system for finding the deals 

Happy hunting
