New in Half Moon Bay CA

[N/A N/A]

Hi--I'm a new investor from Half Moon Bay, CA (near San Francisco). I formed a corporation about a year ago, purchased some raw land out in Amador County (Sutter Creek) and designed and built our first investment house. It was rocky--learned alot--and now it is finished and on the market. (Yea!) I'm looking for the next investment and am thinking of flipping a house here in the Bay area. Houses are still very expensive (average house is $604K). Anyone have any better ideas or locations? Building a house far away from my residence was very difficult. So I'd like to be closer--but if the "deal" is better somewhere else, I'm there! I need a stategy! Help!
Thanks,
