Hi all!

San Diego investors -- I'm currently working on my first home renovation, employing a live-in flip or long term flip. My wife and I purchased a 1,800 SF 3/2 property in La Mesa. I would love if anyone has recommendations for building materials supply wholesalers. I'd like to purchase materials myself to do a number of the renovation projects myself. Any investor-friendly (good pricing, contractor cash accounts with discounted pricing, etc) supplier recommendations for various materials (flooring, tile, stone, countertop materials, hardscaping, lumber, windows, fixtures, roofing materials, etc) is greatly appreciated!

Thanks!

Chris

Thank you very much for your response. I agree as well that money is made when buying the property. We will be sure to carefully run the numbers for each prospective property.

Those are useful comments about appreciation and early cash flow.

Thanks again

All, thank you for your replies.

We are interested in a single family residence, with a price range of $600k to $800k.

Thanks for the reply. We're open in terms of location. Preferably not too far east, but if the numbers make sense I'd be interested.

Hi all!

I'm getting set to begin implementing the BRRRR strategy with my wife to buy and hold our primary residence. This will be our 1st real estate purchase. We won't be able to purchase until our stock reaches long term capital gains in June (we can then sell it to use for our down payment). So in the meantime I've been doing as much research as I can. I've read The Book On Rental Property Investing, David Greene's BRRRR book, and The Book on Estimating Rehab Costs, and I've been watching all the BiggerPockets, Graham Stephan, and Meet Kevin real estate video content.

We'll be purchasing our home in the San Diego area. Anyone with experience, is it a good market to implement BRRRR? Is there a recommended house cost that is best suited for BRRRR?

I'm also interested in any recommendations for:

-Real estate agents

-Mortgage broker / loan officer

-Contractors

-Property managers

Many thanks!
