Will attend. Look forward to meeting everyone. 

@David Friedman Thank you for your advice and offer. The two houses are detached. My understanding is one can legally build an ADU (Accessory Dwelling Unit) on land zoned for SFR. The key is if it is permitted or legal. I need to call to find out. Do you know if an investor (other than the owner) can pull the construction permits from the County Building and Safety (Looks like the area is unincorporated and served by County). Anyway, really appreciate your input.

I am analyzing a deal in Valley of Enchantment San Bernardino CA. Two houses on one lot with two different street #, one larger (2/2) and one smaller (2/1). The title report shows the total square footage, total room of 6, but only 2 bd and 2 ba, but not as two units. 1. How to determine if it's duplex or guest house (zoning is SFR) 2. How to value the deal if there is lack of 2 unit comps in the area? Can I just appraise the total square footage and bd/ba counts? Any thoughts or comments are appreciated.

@Phillip Iwugo Great post! The first deal is usual the hardest, with no experience and track record and limited fund. One source is BP podcast", Joshua and Brandon usually ask the guest "how you got started?". I still would love to hear from other BP members on their first deal, and get inspired or ideas.

Welcome @Gaurav M. I am also looking into out of state market and already have a few areas on my radar. Let's brainstorm for new information and ideas . Best of luck!

You just sell the house at 65K and pocket 30K profit.

Hi @Dave Visaya There are so many resources her on BP sometime it feels overwhelming. Got to take one step at a time. Thanks for the tip on the beginner's guide. See you around.

@Gaurav M. You are right, the So Cal market is expensive. Love to hear more about your out of state investment stories. Will message you.

@Joshua McGinnis @James Wise Thank you for the welcome!

@Min K. Good to see a fellow investor in the neighborhood. Let's meet over coffee.
