Want to start my future in real estate at 23 in bay area

Levi Potts
Posted

I'm currently working in the tech industry, but I'm more ambitious and want to be in charge of my own income and join the real estate industry, but I'm fairly fresh and I understand that the housing market in the Silicon Valley is extremely expensive. Where do I start and how do I get an in? Also looking for some general tips from anybody with experience.

@Levi Potts there are a ton of Californians such as your yourself who are investing in the Midwest. Initial cash investment tends to be lower and the properties seem to cash flow better. Specifically Indianapolis, Detroit, Dayton, Toledo Cleveland, Akron, Fort Wayne, Grand Rapids etc. 

Of course all these markets are unique so you may want to spend some time in the local forums to learn more about each market. Good luck!
