I didn't follow the impacts on the housing market though.Great website. 

I furnish about 80% of my properties off of facebook market place and places like that. 

I’m Mark, a new real estate investor based in San Diego, leveraging my background in AI-driven lead generation to find off-market deals.I’m currently looking for small multifamily properties (duplexes, triplexes, or quads) to rehab and house hack, to build long-term cash flow while living in the property.Outside of real estate, I’m into fitness, golf, and exploring San Diego’s best outdoor spots.

@Joseph Kirton How much time do you feel is needed to be successful?

I live and invest in the Lafayette area myself - I own several in the area - broussard, freetown, broadmoor etc There's a decent market here, I think it's somewhat competitive but there is some availability as wellOff-market is the way to go 100%Purchasing a starter home is a great way to get started - I turned my first home into a rental before I even looked into real estate investing.

I'm calculating which markets are the hottest and going after them. 

Unless you are finding off-market opportunities direct to seller, I can't imagine the deals working on BRRRR.

Does anybody invest in his market and if so what is the spring and summer like?

I feel like my "circle of people" really needs an expansion and improvement and I want someone with more experience in the field I want to be in to really help me gain myself to success!

Markets like Texas (San Antonio or Dallas) or North Carolina (Charlotte) could offer better cash flow with lower costs.
