Stop hanging out with your deadbeat buddies that spend all day drinking, talking sports, and otherwise wasting away.

I live in SoCal (the 805) and really enjoy being outdoors, playing sports, cooking, and reading.

I think real estate is a team sport in almost every aspect. 

Sports, beaches, you name it, tampa is booming.

Purchase price: $92,000 Purchased this 1.5 bathroom home that is next to a large (largest in the country) indoor sports complex and a hospital.

Have the books all over your coffee table and stop watching Netflix or sports make this be your second job.

Just like with a sports car, there is a learning curve to driving fast.  

Stop hanging out with your deadbeat buddies that spend all day drinking, talking sports, and otherwise wasting away.

as @Anthony Angotti Angotti mentioned, it's worth looking into Pittsburgh.Always ranked as one of America's "most livable cities", great amenities, charming neighborhoods, interesting topography, diverse economy, good arts, food & & culture, great sports, relatively protected from natural disasters...it has winters, but not nearly as bad as some more northern cities. 

We believe real estate investing is a team sport, and we are interested in growing our network and our knowledge of investing.
