Investors in places like HI and CA cant get those sort of return very often. 

I'd like to start going to open houses to see how much properties are worth and to start to get to know the Easy Bay Area in the California Bay Area.I'm looking for advice on how to best find open houses and the right questions to ask when i'm there.Thank you in advance.Regards,Vlad

I loan across state lines and my best lender is out of California. 

The house located in nice South East Whittier, CA area bordering Fullerton / La Mirada / La Habra.

lolGood thing you don't have excise transfer taxes in CA?  

Hello Bigger Pockets community,My name is Eric and I live in Oakland, CA.

We are mostly interested in flips and possibly rentals in the Hawaii, Oregon, and California states so if anyone has any deals or is looking for deals... make a connection with me. :-)I'm also interested in chatting and connecting with any real estate agents as it is so great when we find agents that understand how to work with flips in the plethora of mini-cities (and their unique real estate laws) that we have all over LA and the OC! 

Lived here since '84 and have lived in CA, FL, before moving to TX, in 2005. 

My name is Kaylyn and I'm 20 years, motivated and excited to learn about Real Estate knowing that this is by far the best type of investing I can get into. I'm extremely new and any advice to get started would be extr...

Granted I'm in California but unless you had family assistance or are a firefighter it doesn't seem like anyone at 30 is buying where I live.
