Hey everyone,

My name is AJ - I'm a software developer/freelancer based in LA, California.

I've been looking at investing in real estate for a few months now and and am finally getting around to introducing myself here. I've been primarily interested in investing in Multifamily. LA's market is a little saturated so I've been looking at out of state opportunities but have yet to settle on a market.

People who invest out of state/non-local, how do you evaluate potential markets for opportunity?

@Anshul Jain Welcome to BP!  If you're looking to connect with experienced Multi family investors who work in and outside of CA but live in our area I highly recommend the new meetup @Jeffrey Isenberg started in Sherman Oaks.  They hold it at a cantina on the private patio and it's just a great place to talk shop and learn.  You can find it here under the networking tab followed by "events" or look it up on meetup.  "Sherman Oaks Multifamily Investing Meetup".  It's free but I recommend buying some happy hour tacos!  Hope to see you there sometime.

All the best,
