I have worked with many experienced investors from Southern California, Las Vegas, Phoenix, Tucson, Denver, and other large metro areas in the southwest and west coast, with seasoned investors that still live in all of those great cities but have shifted most of their real estate investments out of those higher cost or higher risk markets into ours. 1) Compared to most cities in the SW and West, home prices in the Albuquerque metro are relatively affordable.

It's a rapidly gentrifying neighborhood in Columbus that is also similar to Southern Orchards.

Near the University of Houston and Texas Southern University, these areas offer rental properties and investment opportunities.Good Luck!

This property was sourced through Ann Mesa’s extensive network in Southern California.

For me, I had two goals for the course:  (1) Learn how to do due diligence on notes, and (2) Where to find notes with properties in Southern California (where I have a good network of service providers if things don't go well).  

Have a few doors in southern AB, but always looking for a few new deals.

For collections in Southern California, try Sutton Law Center or California Judgment Enforcement.

I sell land as an agent, I've been a land broker for 15 years, focused on Southern California, FYI.

Understand the NJ markets, such as Northern NJ, Central/Southern NJ, and Jersey Shore, and focus on building relationships with those active in your desired areas.Good luck!

Adding a single ADU in southern CA is typically a poor investment.
