New to BP, Flipper from SF Bay Area

[David Sanchez]

Hi All,

My name is David Sanchez, and I've been flipping since early 2011. I am anxious to meet others in the area and others virtually not in my area that can share their experience and expertise.

Although I have only been flipping, I am looking forward to investing in rental properties as well. Wholesaling doesn't appeal to me as much, but I'm interested in learning more about it and understanding how it works. More so networking with wholesalers to increase the amount of flips I can do by buying from wholesalers.

Also interested in meeting folks and learning about alternative financing methods, including but not limited to HML, PML, etc.

Hope you are all enjoying your weekend, look forward to chatting with many of you, and please give me a shout if you'd like to connect in person in the SF Bay Area.

Thanks,

David Sanchez

@Account Closed , Thanks for the welcome. Where in the Bay are you moving back to? I work mostly in the East Bay; however, have also rehabbed in Napa and Los Gatos. I'm willing to go wherever the money is within the Bay Area. As for competitiveness, I am not familiar with other markets, but I'm assuming the SF Bay is a very competitive market. There are quite a few other folks rehabbing here, so the prices are often driven up close to retail. It seems harder and harder to find good deals, which is why I'm interested in working with a wholesaler or someone similar.

@Johnson H. , Thanks for the welcome. I did notice that I just missed that meetup. Unfortunate. I'd love to meet you and other folks face to face. Wondering if I could pick your brain on your out of state (Houston) SFR's (which I'm assuming are buy and holds)?

@Mehran K. , Thanks very much! I have seen over and over again the same advice on podcasts. Obviously there is some wealth there. I will have to figure out how to play them during my morning walks instead of the standard Pandora stations.

@Brandon Turner , Thanks for the warm welcome!
