BSEE from Orange County, CA. 

@Whitney Bowling based on your other thread of your deals and your investing strategy I would say comparing what you’re doing investing wise and what a large (and I’m assuming well financed) developer is doing is comparing apples to oranges.

@Fred Mompoint East Orange is a great place to invest, but the taxes can be pretty high and the inventory is about as tight as Ive ever seen it.

Lol........Oh kid..... it's almost entertaining watching you spin like a top turning blue sky to red, green grass to orange, and arguing how right you are.

I am a young guy with an undergraduate degree in International business making 60k a year in orange county California. i cannot afford a lot, let alone property in my local market. 

I live in Orange County.

There is so much experience and information here that it’s easy for a newbie like me to get so overwhelmed (which I have been).My interest is wholesaling and I understand the process but I am having difficulty picking a business direction for my area in Orange County CA ex; tax lien, probate, vacant, etc.

It's small, but the little things add up.In Tampa I found out completely by happenstance that you're also supposed to have a license, but it's certainly not required for anything and I've never been asked for it at eviction time, or any other time.PROPERTY TAXES:In Florida I have property in Orange, Pinellas and Hillsborough Counties and in all three I find that the yearly property taxes amount to about 1 month rent, plus or minus a few bucks.For the house in PA, which is just just outside Philly proper, I'm paying 2K+ on a 34K house.

I brought my first home in Orange County in 2005 for 526K and lived it in until 2009.
