Introducing Myself

[Diane Watson]

Hello everyone-  My name is Diane Watson and I live in beautiful Marin County, in Northern California, just North of the Golden Gate Bridge. I am currently a residential real estate agent in both TX and CA but making the transition to becoming a full time investor.  I personally have had some experience with flips and rentals in the Southern Chester County area of Pennsylvania from 2000-2005 so just getting back into investing and I do not have any experience in wholesaling.  I would love to learn more about wholesaling, also private money and lending options including hard money. I am in a very competitive and expensive market out here with average home sale price of 1 million, so needless to say I am open to investments throughout the U.S.  Any advice, blogs to follow, people to meet etc. are welcome and always interesting to me.  I am constantly learning more about this ever changing real estate business.  Nice to meet all of you.  Thank you in advance for your time.  --Diane

Hi Diane,

I'm up the road about an hour in Ukiah. Welcome to the site. Lots of active bay area folks here. Be sure to set up keyword alerts. There's an interesting conversation going on right now on whether/how much the market is cooling in the North Bay and how that might effect people's strategy. You might want to jump in on that one. I'd be interested to hear from more folks on that. 

I too am looking to better understand wholesaling, creative financing, and other elements that will help me take things to the next level.

See you around,

-Orion
