Hi Lucia, 

I was looking for upcoming suburbs in the DFW on Zillow, but admittedly not a total expert at this haha..

I agree that HOA adds an extra expense, but maybe for a first time investor, a condo might be easier to start with (as the loan is smaller)?

Hello, I am interested in investing in real estate in Dallas, TX because it looks like a cool place.

I am looking at the Plano, Carrollton, Garland region as well as Crowley near Fort Worth. Are these decent areas? Would it be OK to invest in a condominium or single family home?

I have also looked at Sacramento, CA (visited a few condos there), San Diego, Hayward, and Las Vegas (also visited a few condos there), in the past.

Thanks!

Hi I recently went to Vegas and saw some condos in the area in the 100-200k range.

I am currently looking for recommendations for buyers agents to help me with the purchasing process; I am working with an agent at the moment, but the communication is not very good so I am looking for a new one.

This would be my first real estate property (for investment). *I am based out of state in the Bay Area in California, where property is very expensive.

Thank you.

nice!

Hi everyone! I am a recent graduate (25 years old after 2 years in Singapore army, British schooling system), and am back in the Bay Area as I grew up here some time ago.

My degree was in Accounting & Finance, and now I am looking at purchasing my first rental property (although probably not in the Bay Area as the prices are too damn high!). 

Anyways I'm quite open to move to a new low-COL city, get a job in finance/accounting, and meanwhile buy a property, renovate it, and rent it out, and repeat it. If I can get a 15%-20% IRR and keep it going for several years that will give me 4-6X return on my starting capital + wages earned after 8-10 years.

My goal is to hit $4m by 40; buy a $1m house, $500k buffer, and $2.5m to fund a 4-5% annuity so I can travel the world in a jeep, car, boat, whatever and retain the optionality to stay at a nice hotel/ home-tel when I want to :)

Anyways if anyone in the Bay Area has the same goals, interested in construction/ real estate especially out of state opportunities, hit me up, I am open for chat/ whatsapp/ coffee or w/e.
