Cashflow market to expand to for beginner Investor? Agent Recs? 100k capital

[Adrian Tjakra]

Hi BiggerPockets Gang,

By way of introduction - my name is Adrian and a new BiggerPockets fans. Learning a lot from this community. I started out from a humble beginning as an Immigrant from Indonesia and currently living and working a W2 job based on the Southern California market. I consider myself as a beginner when it comes to real investing. Currently with 3 rental properties (2 in Houston and 1 in LA) and currently working on a flip that are going wrong in every direction. Good learning experience though! 

I am investing in real estate with a goal of financial freedom and ability to support my family. With my family getting older and the intent to have more flexibility my life today's life to spend time with them, the idea of investing in a more cashflow friendly market definitely is something I am considering (understanding that appreciation factor will be limited). I am looking for advice from this community as to potential market that I can tap to and recommendations on great agent on this market where cashflow can be realized. Looking to get in with 100k to this market and hopefully expand. 

Just here looking to network with agent in these markets, fellow investors, and if I am lucky finding mentor in those markets to grow together and be accountable in this journey together.

Thank you so much for reading this post y'all and looking forward to hearing from you all and networking.

Adrian
