Multi-Family Cash Flow possible in Los Angeles?
BP Community,
Has anyone has success in acquiring Multi-Family properties in the LA area that cash flow upon purchase? How did you find these deals? Am I going to have to suck it up and buy a property that operates at break even or a loss until I can raise rents or can I find cash flow gems? Are there particular sub markets to focus on to give me a better chance without worrying about a buying in an unsafe area?
The market is so hot right now, most properties are being sold based on proforma or have unrealistic asking prices. I have cash and the desire to purchase, but having trouble finding good deals. Any advice or thoughts on this market would be appreciated!
