SoCal is not a place for cashflow unless you hold a very long time and even then....i live down the hill from you and invest in AZ, KC and Indy for that reason.your best chance in SoCal would be to buy a dumpy duplex to live in and rent out one half. that would allow you to build up sweat equity as you would fix up your half then switch sides and repeat. you could raise rents and likely sell for good profit (depending on market of course) upon exit....or just use increased rent to have a nicer unit paid down fastergood luck
