Investors in The Greater Boston Area.
Hello all!
New to the BG Forums. Have been researching for some time now. Currently, I work as a filmmaker (running my own business as well as being contracted out for others.) as I work on building my funds for my first investment.
With this investment, I would hope to invest in the SoCal area (Have been eyeballing Santa Clarita/Lancaster, if anyone from those markets would be able to shed some light on my Newbie mind. It'd be appreciated.) Ultimately, my goal isn't to manage the properties full-time as I am content with my current profession. I don't want to quit my day job. I'd like to generate cash flow to allow me to work on projects that aren't just for the bills.
I've picked up a few of the suggested books, have been listening to the incredible BG Podcast's. But, like anything on the internet. I feel like there will eventually reach a wall of knowledge accessible. I'd like to expand my network now while I can and gather a more developed insight from Investors in this area as in the possible future, I'd like to possibly invest in the Northshore market in this area (Always gotta have a foot back at home).
I searched some of the local meet-up groups and it seems like there's only one in the Boston area. So, any suggestions for this would be greatly appreciated as well!
TIA to all!
