New guy in So Cal here to learn and facilitate learning!

[Patrick Diamond]

Hi everyone,

My name is Patrick Diamond and I just took the plunge to become a pro member. I am new to real estate investing and working on my first deal, which we are very close to funding (hope to be in contract by tomorrow!), so I am in "sponge" mode. I have been attending every REI / FIDI meeting that I can find in our area, and have met some amazing mentors and guides, and have been having an awesome time.

Being such a newbie in the market, I will be absorbing as much as possible, but I also hope to give back via my experience in the short term rental arena... I have extensive experience in all aspects of STRU's through Airbnb, etc., and am happy to provide help and guidance to anyone in that area, and hope I can be helpful.

In my daily life I am a Life & Business Coach, and avid outdoorsman, spending as much time as I can hiking/exploring/camping deep in Angeles National Forest.  I currently reside in Monrovia, CA, but with the close of this deal I will be moving to Wrightwood, CA with my greatly talented fiance and our new puppy.

Looking forward to being a part of this community!

Patrick
