Thank you for the warm welcome. I would looking out of state. San Diego is way to pricey for my taste.

I really want to invest out of state due to the fact that housing in California is generally good expensive. Trying to figure out how to accomplish this successfully.

Hello all, 

I'm totally new in real estate invest in general. I'm still doing my homework on how things work. On my homework list is to find where I want to start investing in. The way I am going about this is asking me if I would be comfortable to live there. Only problem, I haven't visited most of these places. Before I start buying plain tickets to visit all these places, I think it would be a great idea to narrow down my options. Any information about where I can get information about how to find good states, cities, and neighborhoods? Any key items to look for when doing this research?

Any information is much appreciated!

Great post!

As new real estate investor, I needed to hear this. I’m still doing my homework on how to get started but didn’t come across the possible risks that I need to consider. Just like everyone else’s replies, this is what happens when you got for cheap and great on paper. Quality over quantity. Only reason I’m considering OOS is solely because I live in San Diego, CA where median housing is 500k at the moment. Totally a fan in investing in my backyard if the opportunity presents its self.

Hello everyone! I am Leo Peralta from San Diego, CA that is a full-time software engineer. I am very interested in exploring the real estate investing world. I did just buy my own home, but now want rental properties. I hope to build a great portfolio to be financially independent  so I can have the freedom to travel and be there for my family. I've listened to the BiggerPockets Podcast for a couple weeks now and I am just too excited to start. So after attending the 90 Days webinar, I had to join!
