@Karen Margrave

Thank you for taking the time to reply to my post. That was some very helpful advice and will keep it in mind when studying the markets looking for potential investments. I will continue to browse the forums and checking out the podcasts. I am halfway through the Beginner's Guide and I have a much better understanding of what it truly takes to be successful on this field. Best of luck to you and hope to stay in touch.

Robert

@J. Martin thanks man! I am very excited to have joined the BP community and will thoroughly browse the resources provided. I still need to visit the Bay Area but it is definitely in my near plans. Best of luck my friend! And thanks for the quick tips.

Hello everyone!

My name is Robert Portal and I am new to the real estate world. I live in Anaheim, CA and one of the recurring things I keep hearing is that Orange County is a rather difficult market to get into. Any advise on that?

I have had great interest for this field but never really amounted to take action. I have proposed myself to change that and learn as much as I can from all of you. My short term goals include owning residential type properties (condos, SFRs, 2-4 plex) and gain enough experience to move into my long term goals which would be dealing with commercial type properties.

I currently work for a sales and marketing company and have been since I graduated college. After some time I realized that this is not what I want to do with my life but I have been saving some money in order to move on to the REI world. I'm very excited to hopefully start this journey soon with BPs and your help.

Thank you,

Robert
