New member from Spain living in California
Hi All,
I would like to introduce myself as a new member of this great community I recently came across. My name is Jaime Sicre and I am new to the whole world of Real Estate Investment. I just started to scratch the surface reading as much as I can and listening to the podcasts of this website. It has been pretty intense lately as the more I discover about Real Estate the more I want to learn about it. It would be great to start attending some REI events and to meet new people as well.
A little background about myself: my wife and I moved to the US (Laguna Hills, CA) 7 months ago from Spain and it's been great so far. I work in a big Software/IT Services company.
As far as REI is concerned, we still need to decide our goals and strategy, although we are starting to see that our local market is a bit hard for newbies like us.
I am really excited to start this journey and learn and help the community as much as I can.
Cheers!

Welcome to BP. There is a location where like minded investors gather in Lake forest every month that you should check out. Go here https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/521/topics/380015-lake-forest-california-meet-up-on-wholesaling or PM me for the details.
If you would like to chat before then and talk about investing let me know. I am in Mission Viejo and can get together at my local Starbucks. Your ALL in cost is only a cup of coffee.
I am currently flipping homes in Orange County and teach others how to do so as well. I started a wholesaling group and spend my Saturday mornings with them.
I am looking for my next purchase at the court house steps, while I am working on a few more.
Good Investing...
