Hello everyone, I’m glad I learned about BP, what a great resource! 

My name is Justin, I live in Huntington Beach, CA and my first goal is to House Hack a 4 plex or invest in a small Multifamily.  I have no real estate experience other than the purchase of my home in 2010. I have just been researching reading books, watching YouTube videos, and have watched all the beginners guide to real estate investing course videos offered by BP. I see most people looking at cash flow when analyzing a investment property.  It seems difficult to find a cash flow property in my area. Do most investors out here just buy and hold for appreciation?  Thank you and look forward to hearing from you. 

-Justin

@Cassi Justiz I will be looking into local meet ups. 

@Joe Homs  Yes I’ve acquired some great appreciation value which I may try to use toward my first investment. 

@Zeke Liston Thanks!
