Going back to Cali....

[Chris T.]

Ok, I've never really been there so I'm not going back but I like the song!

I am considering opening a Wholesale branch in the San Diego, California area (the closer to Temecula the better). I am currently in the research and networking stage.

If you have a good working knowledge of the area then I would like to talk. Please share your knowledge and experiences on this thread. Here are a few questions to get this started.

What are some good low-income neighborhoods that are at least 30 to 40 yrs old and have a good volume of home sales?

What areas would you consider "War Zones?"

Do you know of a good investor friendly title company/agent in the area?

Do you know of any good investor friendly realtors who may, or may not, allow access to the MLS? (pm)

Wholesalers, Rehabbers, Landlords, Contractors?

Local REI Clubs?

What is your general impression of the market over the last 6 months?

Share any stories or past experiences that you wish as related to investing in the San Diego, CA area!
