Long Distance Investing from SoCal

[Jonathan Hinojosa]

Hi Everyone,
I am based out of San Fernando Valley in LA county. If anybody is else also near by would definitely be great to meet up or connect. I am looking for real estate meet up groups.
Given that I live in SoCal, seems to make sense to invest in out of state. Hoping to learn more, just recently bought David Greene's long distance real estate investing book. Other advice that you would like to touch on or piggy back from the book please share. Would love to hear.
Thank you everyone!
