I have really enjoyed and learned from the great podcasts and success stories hosted by Bigger Pockets. I am relatively new to the website, however.

A bit about myself - I am a full time software professional working in the San Francisco bay area, and am interested in real estate investing (do own rental property in Florida, so not a complete newbie :)   

My primary goal is to purchase residential properties (SFH or small multi-plexes) for long-term rental income. Given the stratospheric prices in the bay area, I'm primarily looking for opportunities in other locations such as Sacramento, Dallas, Orlando or Tampa. Would like to network with peer investors having similar interests.

Happy buying and selling!
