Is Now a Good Time To Invest? (First Time Buyer in LA, CA)
I have looked at 50-100 deals in my area of West Los Angeles. It is difficult to find properties that are cash flow positive after expenses and debt service. Basically, the deals do not look very attractive. I am curious to know what experienced investors think of today's markets and whether or not now is a good time to buy. It worries me that we have had years of quantitative easing and low interest rates. I don't want to be the fool who buys at the wrong time when attractive opportunities could be around the corner.
Thank you for the help!! - Lance
