New Guy from Los Angeles - South Bay (Redondo Beach)
Hello everybody. My name is Alan from the Los Angeles area. I live and work in the South Bay.
I stumbled across BiggerPockets through a Youtube podcast post. Thought I was going to listen for a few minutes but ended up hearing the entire 1.5 hour show! I'm a newbie to real estate investing but have a high level of interest in expanding my footprint. I have two properties in the area and rent one of them. Professionally I'm a financial advisor, and more accustomed to dealing with liquid assets. Hoping to learn and share ideas with the smart folks on this website. Feel free to reach out!
