Cali Resident Buying Out of State

Briana Petry
Posted

Hello,

I'm a newbie to real estate investing, I've been doing research but this stuff can definitely be intimidating. I live in California and buying here is not an option for me right now which leads me to out of state investing. Can anyone provide me with tips or people to connect with to acquire my first property (hoping for at least a couple doors for my first purchase). As of right now Detroit, Baltimore, and Philly are cities I've been watching. I'm hoping to buy before the end of the year. Thanks!

Tons of California people are buying in Baltimore and losing tons of money.  Baltimore is not a city you can invest in from afar.  You have to have amazingly good boots on the ground.  If not, your screwed.
