Elvis Methoxha thanks, that’s more than enough. I actually thought about leaving things at businesses but realized it wouldn’t work well in the neighborhoods I’m shopping for deals in. Here in LA you see bandit signs on every other corner. They’re flooded all over the town.

Jay Hinrichs in your experience what is a great way to steal around in the Ca/La market? Not here today and gone tomorrow.

James K. Appreciate the knowledge. I’ll read this multiple times just to absorb it all and apply as much as possible to my deal hunting tool bag.

Jody Schnurrenberger sounds great. I’ve heard of using craigslist, but haven’t given it much thought. I’m pretty sure it varies by market.

Pedro Preciado I’d say it’ll be best for you to do research and find out good cash flow markets where you can get a property in that price range. Maybe take a trip to a couple of those cities and see what your gut tells you. Go see if there is a strong rental market there and how are the neighborhoods(commercial development, culture, etc.). That’ll be a good place to start.

Are you focusing on a specific neighborhood or part of town?

Hey BP family hope all is well. My goal is to get a property under contract to either wholesale or partner with someone by the end of the year. If not I’ll at least have moment going into the new year but I am laser focused on achieving my goal. I have a list of addresses from list source which I am preparing to mail to. I am also going to start driving for dollars and door knocking. I have my neighborhoods selected and will focus on these pockets heavily. Also have a RE agent keeping an eye out for properties and sending me data. I am curious to know what techniques are you guys using to find properties. I know that every market differs from the next. What works for you in your city. Anyone in Los Angeles, what has worked pretty good for you specifically. Also what have you found that work in your city/town? Looking forward to your responses.
