Looking for advice from flippers in the Los Angeles area

Hi,

I am new to house flipping and am looking for advice.  I'm excited to find my first flip but would love advice in the following areas:

• Is now a good or bad time to invest in the Los Angeles area?  I've heard that timing is everything and am worried that we might be at the top of the market right now - any thoughts?

• What areas have been profitable in the last few months?

• How do I find a good contractor?  I've met with a few people, but haven't found someone with a lot of flipping experience.

• Are there any meetups you recommend where I might get insights from seasoned flippers?

Thanks!

Devorah

You should come to my Meetup group. But I might not have another until December so you might want to connect with me sooner. We meet at my project sites and we tour the house and everyone learns and has a great time. I am helping several new flippers in starting their businesses now. I might be able to help you. I am in the Pasadena area. I have all the answers you are asking but they can not be answered like this in a post.
