Ian Barnes True, CA has the most expensive permits and has the longest wait times, well, depending on the city most of the time, but they mostly have half day offices and half day inspections, and most don't have Friday offices (la county law). by volume, they flood review paperworks to third party architects which in turn review turn around for 1 week, then by the third correction, it's now week 4.

Hello Maz, My name is Ian!

As you might have guessed, my rentals are a big part of the reason I am blissfully jobless...So - am I an investor or a landlord?

I an new to this site and new to real estate as well.

@Ian Sanderson  Another way to ask that same question is, "Investing in a bad market, just because it is local...or...investing out of state, if my local market stinks"?

Thanks @Ian Hoover.Any chance you can give me some insight into why you bought the land?

As per Ian's comments I like the fact that Acquire has skin in the game, additionally, they are pre-funded and appears to be working with experienced sponsors.

Hi Ian,Starting out and just made my first cold call last week.
