MARKET UPDATE PRE AUGUST #'S STILL PENDING ...PREDICTIONS ARE GOOD INCREASE FROM LAST YEARWhy are/arent you investing here?

But I will keep you posted and updated on my personal progress on trying to enter the Realestate community and world!

Don't ask for a "mentorship" right away, show your work ethic and have good intensions and one will develop organically.REI isn't a get rich quick with little effort business, so anyone telling you it is is probably trying to take your money.Best of luck to you and be sure to update us so we can follow your REI journey!

The CAA website is a great resource though as they keep updating it as information becomes available on this new law (AB3088): https://caanet.org/AB3088/

I don’t think wiring or plumbing has been updated/replace.

IF YOU'RE LUCKY, they can rinse and repeat again, though unlikely they'll be able to pull all the money out from simple cosmetic updates.

Here is an update to an old post I had about my drive to Financial Independence through real estate. 

UPDATE: I talked to a mortgage specialist from WellsFargo and I was able to secure a 3.25% interest rate and 15 years at 25% down payment with zero origination fees.

It needs some updates (~15k), but a comp within sight distance of this property that has been updated is listed for $139,980, so I'm estimating my ARV at $130,000.

Reyna, what's the update?
