If you're cousin will be living in SD, purchasing a home in the Coachella Valley area as a second home (from a mortgage perspective) will enable you to put less down, and get a slightly lower interest rate.

Is anyone else having trouble with BP website?

BP is one of the best online real estate investment websites.

Hi All, I'm new to the Bigger Pockets world, and real estate investing in general, but I"m excited to be here learning from the site and all of you.

I'm a new to Bigger Pockets website but I have been listening to the podcast for awhile now. 

My advice to a real estate newbie would be to capitalize on all of the free resources this site has available at your disposal.

Welcome to the site, Jared.
