Greetings from Southern California! I have followed BiggerPockets for a couple of years. This is a great site with lots of info, depth and breadth of experience and I have appreciated it as a resource for information. I am an architect, have some development experience, and have been investing in residential rental property for a few years. My first rental purchase was a duplex in 2001, but I started aggressively investing in Southern California in 2009. I have a handful of residential rental properties in Orange County, however Good Cash flow opportunities here have been rare for the last couple of years with prices for condos up 80% to 90% since '09. I am now researching other markets outside of my home turf for investment in SFRs or condos and am looking forward to more actively participating in this unique community.
