What are the best areas to invest in LA?
Hi! I'm getting started with REI and trying to make my first deal this year. Since I live in Los Angeles I want to start investing here. So I wanted to know what areas in LA are good to invest to either fix and flip or do a rental property. Any recommendations?

There are a lot of different areas all over the city that can work for you depending on what your goals are and what price range you want to get started in.
There are cheaper areas (below 500k) like South LA and Riverside county where you could grab a rental or a flip on the lower end of the LA market. If you're willing to travel to the high desert you can get into deals for below 300k in cities like Victorville and Apple Valley.
