Looking out of state is a good assumption for CA investors. Learn about what that means when you can not handle the property management directly.

Midwest, TX, NY, some of the southern states are come to mind.

I wouldn't totally agree with John but he does have his reasons why not to invest into CA. So what exactly are you looking for out in Fontana & Riverside? Thank you for your time and have a wonderful biggerpockets day my friend!

in your own back yard at 50% to 80% LTV, fixers, subject-to, wholesale you get the idea.
Having some kind of system, any kind as long as you have one, along with lead generation to locate your sellers who need to sell, not want to sell. Then building a relationship with your seller and truly helping your client.
If you need help with anything just shoot me an email, I am located in the high desert "Gold in these here hills or desert" Los Angeles County CA.
P.S. this may be the wrong section for this, I have a deal that might work for you in Hesperia, CA. @ with $85,000 in equity.

Hope that helps.

E.

Good luck with your real estate investing. I would highly recommend getting involved with your local investor club, and even consider working with a real estate investor coach.

Welcome to the site.

I live in Southern California. I've found there are plenty of deals out here. Each area of the country comes with its own pros and cons in regards to investing. It's a matter of doing what you're comfortable with and also a matter of what type of strategy you prefer.

Read the different forums, ask questions of the other members, and you'll find your niche.

Hi Tricia, welcome to the forums. Years ago I lived in Riverside. I actually started my career in real estate there. What type of investment are you thinking of doing?
