We walked through a boarded up home a few weeks back that we literally had to hack through webs/egg sacks like a jungle forest.

Welcome to the jungle i guess right?

I'm not sure why the rent rate on Rent Jungle and Zillow do not match.

It's great to be able to go to the beach year round, but also tired of the concrete jungle and traffic.

What we can do is be alert and understand that doing business is like going on hunt in a jungle.

is it in a jungle somewhere, Bahamian beach, suiss bank , a coffee shop in SHanghai ?

All the rest is pretty much jungle and there's plenty of it.

This is a terd property in an run of the mill terd street (very little greenery, the urban jungle) in the heart of Los Angeles.So, you are prolly gearing up to say, well noob, go to the outskirts of the city for normalized prices.I have looked in Palmdale and Lancaster (1.5 hours commute outside of L.A. proper, and still in LA County) and the cap rates only rise to 5-7.My question to my wise investor friends:When you were starting out, where do you put your time and money?

the concrete jungle - if I can make it here I can make it anywhere....

Quote from @Maximillian Lewis: Hi everyone,i'm very new in the world of real estate investing and very excited to finally start this journey.I'm studying and reading everything i need to know about the world - universe - of real estate, and just joined biggerpockets a few days ago.I have never invested nor bought a property before, but i have decided to turn my life around and i see a lot of positive thinkers and vibes on this website.I will be moving from Seattle to LA in a couple of months - 2 extremely expensive cities - and i'm giving myself at least 1 year before i start buying my first property - perhaps a multi family/house hacking.I'm looking to connect with a real estate agent in SoCal that can mentor me and guide me navigate this jungle as everything is very new to me.Thank you all in advance for your help!
