I'm originally from the Orange County area and have been in DC for 5 years, I'm ready to move back home but I can't find any Wholesale or properties in need of rehabilitation that will allow me to get back to the Irvine/Newport Beach area at a decent price.I go to OC one week a month for work and I'm only seeing overpriced deals in the nice areas of South OC, and market rate or just above market rate in areas like Westminster, and Santa Ana, these use to be the go-to cheaper neighborhoods.I'm getting so frustrated I joked with a friend about funding a Wholesalers marketing campaign just to get a property in the Irvine/Newport area since that would be cheaper than paying above market rate.

I did business with the Dougher family down your way they own 5 thousand spaces in Orange county free and clear..

Andrew Yang I think you should house hack like what other people are saying, if you find a good deal you might be able to live for free with positive cash flow, or even live for very little (which is still good opposed to payed so much to live in the dorms).

We had a similar situation in Orange park.

Hi All,My name is Frank Enriquez and I am a newbie from California, Orange County area.

Long story short: I'm highly interested in pursuing the buy and hold route as a real estate investor, however, trying to buy in my own backyard (Orange County, CA) is a bit of a challenge due to the insane housing costs here.
