Just getting started from the Bay Area
Hey everyone!
I joined the community about a week ago and have been going through the forums, articles and beginner's guide absorbing as much information as possible. I just graduated from college, moved out to the west coast, got a job and would like to get started owning my first property. My plan for now is to rent out property, probably starting with either a single family or multi family (probably not in the bay area).
I'm currently a product designer and have worked at big tech companies, so if anyone has design/tech questions feel free to hit me up!
I'm looking to start attending some real estate meetups in the bay area and trying to find a mentor so I can build a solid foundation of knowledge before I leap in and buy my first property.

@J. Martin Thanks for inviting me to the meetup! Unfortunately, I'll be flying down to SD that week for July 4th. When is the next meetup, and do you have nay other clubs/meetups that you'd recommend?
And yes, the price is definitely the issue here in the bay. I also haven't yet done enough research to determine where I would ideally like to start investing.
@James Wise Thanks!
