Hi All From Southern California

Hi all I am planning to invest for first time around 50K and I am still reading the Bigger Pockets Guide to get ready to do this. I have 2 questions. Is it worth to buy a rental property in midwest while I am leaving in California? I am afraid I could lose control of my property and lose money by traveling there constantly. If I could invest those 50K closer to Orange County, is there a place you recommend me to look? Thank you so much. Jj

Juan Jose Martinez ruiz welcome to the BP community. To get answers locally to your questions I would suggest you attend the local Meetup groups in Orange County. Short notice but there is one tomorrow in Lake Forest.
I feel the same about having local control and that is why I only invest locally. However I just meet a guy who is killing it on San Antonio Texas.
Good investing.
