New Member from San Diego

[Danielle Wolter]

I'm new to the Bigger Pockets community and am very excited to be here - such a wealth of information already.

I am an investor from San Diego, CA looking to branch out into OOS investing due to the high cost of property here. I own 2 rental properties here in San Diego already, but bought them a few years ago without really knowing what I was doing. One cash flows, the other I am just crossing my fingers for decent appreciation (it's in downtown San Diego).

I am a licensed real estate agent in CA, but am not active. I only used it to buy my own rental properties and my personal residence. I know some, but not a lot about real estate.

I have really been working to get more educated and am very interested in using the BRRRR method of buy and hold. I have been looking at several markets such as Memphis, Knoxville, Tuscaloosa, Omaha, Madison WI, and Tulsa. I'm just trying to narrow it down to one area so I can focus on learning the market and making connections.

I work a day job and plan to use the money from that to fund my real estate investments, as well as a HELOC I am in the process of closing on.

I am excellent at analysis (I'm a numbers person at my day job), but very weak in knowledge on rehab. I hope to learn more about that part of it on Bigger Pockets, and honestly, through experience.

I am looking forward to learning a lot and making some new friends and potential business connections in these forums!

 Welcome and you're in the right place to gain knowledge and learn things that you probably never thought of.  Keep reading and since you're a numbers cruncher you will fit in fine.  

Have fun as well and don't hesitate to ask questions if you need help.

Take care and have a great day.
