yes, send me a PM, and we can take it from there 😌

I thought of something regarding your chosen area of the 210 corridor you may or may not have thought of already, but just in case:

The LA county cities that border the West End (Claremont, Glendora, etc) are pretty different markets than SB county cities along the 210. You might want to consider specializing in one county or the other. And don't forget the North Upland/San Antonio Heights area, as well as the RC/Alta Loma areas, and of course the Chino Hills area. (I'm assuming by choosing the 210 corridor you're wanting to work with the higher end client). 

@Aarin J.  Working in the area where you will live, possibly have a family, etc. would make the most sense. When you live in an area, you get to KNOW the neighborhoods, where people shop, and get involved in the local community. Those networking opportunities are invaluable and will help you along much further than driving to work in another city, and spending a workday there. 

Real Estate is all about building relationships and networking. It's much easier to do where you live. Good luck. 

Hello @Aarin J.

Welcome to the site!  BP is an awesome place with so much room to grow your knowledge base. I currently work for a real estate office in Mission Viejo and work more within the Inland Empire currently because of my knowledge base and leads. In the realm of real estate it is very good to have a great grasp on the local market, which can come easily from living within that area. Of course there will be times were you get a lead for another area; however, the most knowledge will come from looking and driving that area day-by-day! 

I grew up in Redlands and have a very good knowledge of the area (Inland Empire), and the more I go out there the more I understand that certain market. I say that because once I have honed my skills in that market, I will be able to look at any other market with the knowledge and make an educated decision for a client on their next home, or myself on my next investment.

If you have any more questions please feel free to contact me via PM.

Good Luck,

Peter
