It is April, so Orange County auctions must be soon.

the standard VA eligibility is 36,000 the county limit in pierce/king WA state is 517,500 so it will depend on how much of your va eligibility you've used you may be able to get two if enough entitlement remains.If this is an ambiguous then here's an example: In CA Orange County the va limit is 625,500 however the average single family home is around 550k in south county OC so most of the va entitlement is used up during the first use because 550k as a percentage wise is almost 90% of the 625,500 county limit.

Great feeling especially when you loved one is excited that they can partake in the fruits beared.

I asked for specifications book but the developer said they will leave it up to us as long as it complies with the plans, they have some specifics there but not too specific (ie they said dunn edwards paint but not to what color, not even if it is smooth finish or orange peel, that doesnt bother me much).

I've seen this setup for Orange County or LA but never San Diego.

I'm currently networking, Meetup getting ideas on finding my first deal in the Los Angeles, Long Beach and Orange County area. 

Your friend is correct in that the market has heated up enough to where all the low-hanging fruit has been plucked, at least as far as small multifamily properties go.

I currently live in Orange County so its not possible currently to get a place around here, but am open to hearing suggestions.

I've done a few in East Orange.

I don't invest out of state at this time, but I do flip properties in LA and Orange Counties.
