Thank you Mr. Myers, it is a pleasure to communicate and work with like minded individuals like yourself. I look forward to having a conversation with you in the near future. Since this is my first day on BiggerPockets, I still do not know if we can exchange emails or phone numbers, but I will find that out tomorrow after I have done a little more research. Should you have any questions regarding RE, feel free to contact me anytime.

Best regards,

Thank you very much Mr. Prutaseranee. I will take you up on your offer soon. We used to live in the Oaks private community in Lake Forest when I worked for Toshiba as a Systems Engineer years ago. We had to move back to San Pedro when my older brother passed away so we could take care of my aging father. Even after 10 years, I still miss South Orange County. My wife Nancy and I hope to talk to you and meet you soon. This is my first day on BiggerPockets, so I do not know if we can exchange emails or phone numbers. Should you need anything RE related, please do not hesitate to ask me.

Best regards,

Hi my name is Jim and my wife’s name is Nancy. We live in the Port of Los Angeles, San Pedro, CA. I have had my CA real estate license for 10 years. I am a member of the National, State and my local association of Realtors.

I am now living in my third house. Each time I sold my house, I would bring it up to current standards or better. I have also done kitchen and bathroom upgrades for my in-laws and rental properties that my family has owned in the past.

I am now very interested in buying, fixing and flipping. My focus will be wholesale deals in mid-level income areas in both Los Angeles county and Orange county. I have been to some seminars and could not believe the sky high prices to continue with these folks!

I pretty much think that I have most of the tools to figure out the ARV and other things from the software that I have either bought or subscribe to. The main thing that we are looking for is funding that does not cost an arm and a leg.
