Hi Everyone, I recently ventured into real estate investing and purchased my first property a few months ago.

@Amanda Scheller Since you are able to house hack with as little as 3.5% to 5% down one suggestion would be to buy your first place in San Diego and hold on to the 4plex....If after your first purchase you feel good/confident about going to the next purchase, at that point you can consider selling the 4plex to purchase your second property in San Diego.  

Is your new property tax based on the assessed value of the home or the price you purchased it for at the auction?

Purchase price: $149,500 Cash invested: $3,000 Condo in St.

As you can tell, this is a very big step for me and is quite nerve racking trying to make my first purchase as smooth as possible.

Purchase price: $355,000 Cash invested: $25,000 Contributors: Lyra Dominguez House with guest house.

It looks like you are already taking the right steps to start the process of purchasing a property in the next 12 months.

They don't have any real value as far as the purchase price goes.If I am wrong about the assumption, sorry about that.

Purchase price: $305,000 Officially closed on my 2nd property.

I purchased another Sub2 course this week called "screw the bank" by Jay Palmquest.
