CA-Based Rookie Investor

Hey BP forums! My name is Mike and I am a rookie real estate investor. I am 28 years old and currently work in healthcare. I was born and raised in the Bay Area and am currently living in a condo where I'm cashflowing for a guy on the east coast. 

I started my RE journey earlier and I've been listening to the BP Rookie podcast religiously (as well as started reading Rich Dad Poor Dad). I believe that I am still in the research and learning stage of my RE journey, but I am proud to say that I have determined that my overall goal is cashflow (qualitative) with an immediate goal of $1000/mo (quantitative).

I am on ep. 50 of the BP Rookie podcast, and I don't think anyone has been on (yet) that is investing in CA. But if there's one thing I've learned from BP so far, it's that every door has a price that makes it a deal!

I am very excited to speak with many of you and am really interested in meeting some fellow CA- or Bay Area-based REIs. I'm very anxious but also eager for this new journey!
