Martin, @Kim Stofan@Gordon Cuffe, @David Oldenburg, Account Closed...I hope that I mentioned all that have helped!

Thanks Josh,I get over there as well-let me know if there sometime we could meet.

Long-term I'd hope to grow a buy-and-hold portfolio, but I'm very focused on this first purchase for right now.Since I work downtown, don't own a car (and don't want to), and spend most of my time in Central LA, I'm looking really closely at areas around downtown: lower-cost areas with decently affordable 2-4 unit buildings (in the $400,000 to $800,000 range) like Pico-Union, areas around USC, and even up around Hollywood/Koreatown when the rare good deal shows up there.I've been looking around on Redfin a bunch, but have seen little to nothing that satisfies Josh and Brandon's "Two Percent Rule" (or even 1% rule).

@Josh Mitchell @Jim ThorpeThank you for quick responses guys!

Hey guys,I would like some advice/ideas on how to turn around a property I acquired online or how to get rid of it (if it's not worth the trouble).Being prior military I was familiar with Fort gordon, GA (city of Augusta) and received a notice that the VA was getting rid of several properties that it had foreclosed on.

I’m Josh, an electrician from Portland, Oregon.

Hi all I am Josh from Portland/Hillsboro Oregon area.

First I want to thank Josh and Brandon for making all this possible.
