New to real estate investing in California

[Jake M Pries]

Hi, I live in Orange County and finishing up my last couple classes at UCLA. Looking to get into real estate investing during my off season baseball time with multi-family homes or small apartment buildings in the fall. My area is quite expensive, are there any areas maybe in Arizona or Nevada that are attractive (Phoenix looked promising with their population growth and cost of living) that could produce more cash flow than my area? I would want to produce enough cash flow to buy an investment property back in Orange County for higher appreciation in the future. If there is any advice out there I would love to hear it!
