I currently live in San Francisco CA and I am dying to get my first deal down.

I have 2 questions for my fellow BPers:We are based in California, and are buying out-of-state in Utah.

To indicate an investor can find a better ROI on average in the Midwest is simply misleading for they have not (you can run the numbers - the numbers do not lie (pick from the years indicated and take the best Midwest locale and run the numbers against the worst of the 3 CA cities listed). 

When I do math this way it seems almost impossible to find a good deal that will have cash flow although I live in southern California were prices are ridiculous right now.

The broker will likely have better knowledge of which lenders have an appetite for a first time 1031 borrower from California, for example.Another thing to consider is to buy a smaller property that you will not have to borrow money at all.

For the last few years they only had crappy homes in the middle of nowhere that nobody would want to buy, at least in California.

When: 10/14 (Saturday) 10:30amWhere: Starbucks- 5897 Lincoln Ave, Buena Park, CA 90620Whos interested??

A presenter was describing the flips they were doing in CA.
