Hello everyone. Ive lived in Santa Barbara for about 6 years now but I'm temporarily living in San Jose for a few months. I work at a tech company in SB and bought two SFR in the last two years. Both are in Stockton, CA. My sister happens to be a realtor there so thats how it piqued my interest. Those houses are professionally managed and have positive cashflow.

I have an offer outstanding on a SFR in the Indianapolis area and hope to close on that soon. Ive found much better cashflow there and I have a local friend who is a property manager. My first goal is to get to 10 SFRs, probably in 3 different markets, over the next 4 years. I am considering finding some fix and flips to help me get there faster, but my day job can be time consuming.

I found BiggerPockets from the podcasts and was amazed at how useful it was. I have been doing as much reading as I can on RE but dont have a connection to any community so Im looking forward to collaborating with all of you on some deals!
