Let me know how I can help.

A great way to start is by attending RE events and joining a local investors association.

### Understanding REO PropertiesFirst, it's crucial to understand what REO properties are.

I know this is a tough and confusing question, but hopefully someone can answer it for me.

I live in California, I am new to real estate and am looking to do some out-of-state investing mostly for cash flow. 

Shout-Out to an Amazing Realtor for Out-of-State Investors – Melissa Hudson in Cleveland, OHHey Bigger Pockets Community,I wanted to take a moment to share an incredible experience I had working with Melissa Hudson, a realtor based in Cleveland, Ohio, who helped me sell my out-of-state investment property.

Hi BP family,I am a new investor looking to expand into fix and flips in California with financing and construction team in place.

We meet our borrowers in advance of any deal, typically first at a real estate club, and we spend time getting to know them.

Regarding asset classes, there is almost no barrier to entry on cost since most land flippers do their first deal and make like $4,000 which makes it an option for some to start.

I have had a couple of estimates to complete this work and it ranges anywhere from 40k to 75k.
