And over 20 years, my partner & I have wholesaled or assigned quite a few deals. 

There may be restrictions on when you can exit and how you exit.

And the deals I didn't buy I sold to other investors and built up capital for the next buy and hold deal. 

That means all cars must be able to maneuver into parking spaces on the lot.

I have heard that CA is very competitive and very difficult to find deals in.

i've been outbid on the last few deals that i thought would make good BRRRRs. 

If not, you may not even be able to finance this on a conventional loan.

Explore remote investing options like turnkey properties or out-of-state rentals with property managers, and use summers or gap years to network, analyze deals, and gain hands-on experience.

Focus on the numbers rather than emotions.

It's a tax on the gain.How is this calculated?
