I am a new investor and just recently got into my first JV flip as a silent partner in the Los Angeles area.

Made an offer on a CA (Los Angeles County) commercial property and got verbal acceptance BUT the listing agent - who is also buyer's agent in this transaction, doublesiding it - is saying the Seller is now making a "Counteroffer" that Seller is a licensed real estate agent which must be signed.

Purchase price: $325,000 Cash invested: $640,000 Sale price: $1,285,000 Developed New Modern Ground up Construction in Siverlake area of Los Angeles.

I currently reside in the Los Angeles area, where the market is on fire right now, making it difficult to buy anything around here.

My real estate investment company is NestVestor, and I am currently doing Wholesaling and Flipping in Los Angeles County and surrounding areas, slowly paving my path to real estate development.

I don't know that I've ever met a 1st gen African LO, but I've met 1st gen LO Russians, Latinas, Brits... and to the extent that African accents are associated with "Nigerian Prince" schemes, note that the overwhelming majority of LOs doing shady things circa 2004-2007 had accents identical to what you would expect my accent to be based on my profile picture, so you certainly shouldn't assume that I'm not shady based on my accent any more than you should assume someone is shady if they have an accent that sounds African.

I’m relatively new to Biggerpockets but would like to invest in Los Angeles area multi family properties (I currently have an investment property in another state but would like to have one in CA).

I have worked with a few Brokers who do large buildings in Los Angeles.

It will also continue to enact the updated measure in Honolulu, Los Angeles, Miami, New York City, San Antonio, San Diego and San Francisco.
