Which Market to Focus on

[Shawn Questa]

Hi all,

I am new here and new to Wholesaling / Investing.

I am a Residential Designer, almost Licensed Architect, trying to Design / Build my own Projects.

I figured Wholesaling could help me do that, while also getting experienced in finding and closing my own Deals.

I am trying to Focus on a single Market for Deals and could use some advice.

I would focus in my Backyard, but I live in Redondo Beach, South Bay, Los Angeles and the Market here is crazy intimidating.

My Brother-in-law is a Realtor and Flipper in Mesa Arizona, so I could focus around the Phoenix area, as he could help.

My College Buddy is also a Realtor and Flipper in Plano Texas, so I could focus on the Dallas Fort Worth area as well.

I am considering moving to Portland / Hillsboro Area, so maybe focus there.

Or, none of the above and just focus on parts of the Country that are hot Real Estate Investor Areas and Wholesale 100% Virtually to them.

Any advice or tips would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.
