Looking to Gain Knowledge from Local Investors

Damien Dear

Hello everyone,

In the effort of moving from wide eyed Real Estate newbie to actual Real Estate investor, I'm hoping to speak, meet up and possible even do walk thru's with Investors in the Southern Cali area. I'm looking for advice on strategy's to get started, more ways to make myself useful in attracting possible mentors or becoming a part of a team and working my way up. I'd like to learn more about wholesaling, fix and flips, analyzing and rehab costs; or any other advice you have. I understand that your time is valuable and will make sure to it is not wasted.

Hey @Damien Dear,

Delving into the world of real estate investing (actually DOING it) is much more difficult than reading about it, watching it on TV, etc... 

Hopefully someone in LA can let you take a look on some of their projects and let you ask questions and "shadow" them for a day or so?

I'm not sure how flexible you are with traveling, but I have a deal going now in San Diego (fix and flip) I could invite you to tour/walk through... I also have a pending one in Las Vegas (it's in escrow) and another active one in Independence Missouri (that's kind of far though). And I don't actively look in the City of Los Angeles, but often come across things in Orange County that if I take on, I could let you walk through and ask questions as well. 

I might charge you an In-N-Out burger, but that's it :)

Inbox me if you're interested.
