Recent College Graduate and New Real Estate Investor in Los Angeles

Hi everyone! My name is Elisha (pronounced like Elijah with an sh) and I recently graduated from UCLA with a degree in Molecular Biology. I’m currently taking a gap year (or a few potentially) before medical school and am looking to start investing as soon as I can! Currently looking to purchase a long-term rental and have heard of some of the low or no percent down options such as with creative financing. I’m committing 8 hours or so a week right now to learning about strategies and markets, and excited to network with others in the real estate business as well! I haven’t specified a market yet I want to invest in, but I have a deal lined up in the St. Louis area. Looking forward to meeting everyone!

Hey Elisha! Love that you already have a deal lined up in St Louis, that's a great market to invest in.
