Southern California investing

[Bryce Buss]

Hello BP friends, does anyone invest in Southern California? I’m traveling for work from Alaska and currently staying in Granada Hills area near LA. I’ve noticed many run down properties on my way to and from work in nicer neighborhoods that would possibly be good brrrr candidates. My question is, how complicated is the permitting process here? Does the GC usually take care of that stuff or is it the owners responsibility? Any insight is greatly appreciated!
