New San Diego investor seeking referrals in the San Diego market

[Christopher Radecke]

Hi all!

I'm getting set to begin implementing the BRRRR strategy with my wife to buy and hold our primary residence. This will be our 1st real estate purchase. We won't be able to purchase until our stock reaches long term capital gains in June (we can then sell it to use for our down payment). So in the meantime I've been doing as much research as I can. I've read The Book On Rental Property Investing, David Greene's BRRRR book, and The Book on Estimating Rehab Costs, and I've been watching all the BiggerPockets, Graham Stephan, and Meet Kevin real estate video content.

We'll be purchasing our home in the San Diego area. Anyone with experience, is it a good market to implement BRRRR? Is there a recommended house cost that is best suited for BRRRR?

I'm also interested in any recommendations for:

-Real estate agents

-Mortgage broker / loan officer

-Contractors

-Property managers

Many thanks!
