Hello BP nation:

My name is Siva Mullapudi, living in Los Angeles area, California for the past 7 years. I own a home in Simi Valley. I have little experience in Real Estate Investing. Last year, I kept a personal goal to start investing in real estate by end 2013. I tried to do couple of real estate deals locally but not successful because of huge upfront requirements and stringent rules. Frustrated a bit, at the end of 2013, I brought a vacant residential lot (under PUD status) in Half Moon Bay, CA near to the beach with a hope it will appreciate in next 5 years.

I found Bigger Pockets website couple of months back and started reading “Beginner’s Guide” and forums. I am impressed by the members contributions and pleased to be a part of this group. I have entrepreneurial passion in real estate and interested to expand my knowledge in Real Estate Investing.

I have Master in Business Administration from University of Southern California specializing in Business Development and currently working in Healthcare industry. I look forward to learn and possibly make some solid networking connections that be local or out of area.

Thanks in advance, and thanks to everyone who contributes here. This is an invaluable resource for aspiring investors.

p.s.: Congratulations to Josh, Brandon and team for completing the 9 years mark!

Respectfully,
Siva
