Live-In Flips, 1-4 Units, Orange County, CA

[Aaron Sauceda]

Hi All - 

I'm an investor based in Orange County, interested in flipping 1-4 unit property. I've been mailing and searching for potential value-add property, and I'm also looking for a primary residence. I don't feel great about where we are in the current market cycle, so given my situation, an interesting strategy could be exploring a live-in flip. The exit is still relatively quick, while also gaining flipping experience and a primary (albeit dusty and hectic) residence.

I'm curious if anyone is currently (or has in the past) done this in Orange County? I'd love to learn more about the process and the good/bad, financing, lessons learned, etc. Please feel free to connect directly with me on BP, I'd love to grab coffee sometime! Hope to connect soon!

Best,
Aaron
