I live in Northern California and my goal is to flip houses out of California and roll that income into rentals for equity growth.

If your goal is to get into short term rentals - analyze the deal to a point where it can still work as a longterm or midterm rental if short term doesn't perform as expected. 

Most importantly, choose a market that aligns with your goals!

@Matthew Mclean Generally yes presuming your goal is to get a better rate. 

What are your goals for investing?

I already have one rental property that I own, but want my goal is to reach 40 doors in the next 20 years.

Stay focused on your goals, keep networking, and don't hesitate to reach out if you need any other advice or assistance with financing.Looking forward to connecting further!

If your goal is to grow your LLC, consider arranging all of your properties under an agreement with your LLC to manage them & take all of the legal steps to ensure that the structure is correct. this may involve creating LLCs in the state(s) your LTRs are in to own the property and your PM LLC managing those properties, so that you don't have a concentration of all of your portfolio in one entity.

When I started, my goal was always to be able to find a deal where I was all in at 70% or better on the ltv so I could pull all my money back out and keep going.  

My goal is to network and build relationships with investor-friendly agents and experienced real estate professionals who have extensive knowledge of the central Indy market.
