As an RE Agent and an investor primarily in Los Angeles and Orange County,  I just recently went through this process myself! 

(Orange County).

But if someone is giving a false impression of their experience by putting on their website projects that they do not own as their companies experience in an attempt for raising money then there is typically an orange jumpsuit waiting for them down the road.

Instead of chasing success, I focused on crafting a genuine connection with my clients through informative videos and a heartfelt commitment to service.As the seeds of change took root, the fruits of my labor began to blossom.

It's apples to oranges, not a great comparison. 

I am in orange county, specifically Santa Ana and could not find a bar or coffee shop where real estate, escrow and mortgage professionals meet to network.

Last time I checked, their pricing (for the large 2-sided full-color PC) was still pretty competitive:Postcard printing .14 (for 7 DAY turnaround)Processing for mailing .07 ($175 fee divided by 2,500 pieces)Standard postage .28-------------------------------------------------------------------.49 per piece total (Does not include mailing list)So, that's comparing old-school static printing to the new-tech variable printing (apples to oranges comparison), but you get the idea.P.S.

I'm living in Orange County, CA and looking to get started by purchasing our first property in the next 9-12 months.

They are building, essentially, another old town "like" area on Orange grove between Lincoln and Los  Robles!

Careful trying to make the shoe fit or grabbing the lowest hanging fruit.
