Yes, although the prices has increased very steadily so I think there are better opportunities elsewhere.

I am a private lender financing business purpose loans for investment properties in california.I like to service my own loans as that gives me an opportunity to keep in touch with my borrowers and also turn them as my marketing agents too ( where ever i can)I am only doing about 5 loans at a time and use xls for that (interest only loans)I al looking for a recommendation for a cloud based software I could use for servicing a small pool of california loans.Please advise.

Everything in real estate is about opportunity cost. 

As you can imagine, it is an awesome opportunity for me to binge read countless books and listen to an insane amount of podcasts in a very short amount of time, relatively speaking (8-10 hours a day can really knock out a good chunk of if not an entire book, perhaps two).

The affordable single family homes provide a lot of opportunity.

As to location for your OOS investments, I'm in southeast Tennessee and while there are fewer deals now than 3 years ago, there's still plenty of cash flowing opportunities in the market.

I’m about to cash out refinance a BRRRRed duplex and will be looking for my next opportunity.

I had same opportunity, but didn't take it as the floor commercial will be the main source of income , it was too small for any popular to lease it , and franchises makes 60% percent of all businesses

Anybody willing to share if they have seen any benefit from investing in opportunity zones?  

This is put on by the same group that does the workshop and you can meet those guys and discuss further there if you are interested or just use it as an opportunity to network with like minded people.
