@Victor Baquero you might be interested in this. I will be attending 

@Raju Balakrishnan I think that's a very interesting play. In 10 years I'm confident rents/prices will be higher so with this temporary depression in both I think it would be a great time to get in. I always assumed you really could CF in the BA anyhow so if you're finding deals to break even or scratch out a little today then you'll probably be very happy in the future.

 Personally I don't know the sub markets in the BA well enough to say if Oakland is a good spot but I like the concept you're describing

Is anybody planning any more of these types of events in the area? I'd love to be included

Hi I’m looking for a recommendation on GCs in the STL area. Small projects including some siding, sewer, and possible inner wall water damage. Thanks in advance

I think you stand a good chance at strong appreciation in the areas you are mentioning but finding cash flow in this area will be very difficult. I just sold a rental in Orangevale that had made strong appreciation but couldn't cash flow. Things are just too expensive. Sounds like your budget is $500k which might get you into some of those areas but rents will only be $2000-$2500 so you'll probably not be cash positive

Thanks all!

Hi just started looking into this area a bit. Did you end up getting into this city at all?

Hi I’m looking for some sort of neighborhood or zip code break down for Saint Louis, MO. I’m new to the market and trying to find areas to target in B to A neighborhoods. Can you anyone share something like this? Thanks in advance

@Daniel Amberg thanks for the recommendation! I'll look into it

@Caleb Brown you make a good point and it got me thinking. For large MF since price is tied more directly to rent (as compared to SFH) I guess there's no real "market appreciation" or at least as not as significant. So even in CA as long as you have enough cash to get started you'll make the cash flow. My mind is in SFH where the price may be to high compared to rent to really cash flow in CA but that doesn't apply to MF. This is probably obvious to you guys but really helpful for me. Thanks
