My objective is to learn, grow and succeed as a real estate investor.

Is there any reason the end cash buyer would object to doing it this way?

@Joel FischerDo you want someone locally or are you open to working with someone digitally?

I have heard a lot of horror storiesMy objective is to find some lower price point cash flowing rentals as I feel the LA market has matured and peaked quite significantly... my idea is that if i lose 10% on a 300k property mark to market (unrealized and potentially cover the note if i have to in a worse case scenario ) its not as bad as losing 10% on a 1,000,000 property mark to market (and potentially realized due to an inability to stay solvent if it remains unrented longer than i have reserve)any feedback would be appreciated sorry if this post is in the wrong category

If you're happy with single-digit returns, then yeah.

If there is a tech or marketing side to Realtor jobs then I might be interested, as I'm both a techie with two IT degrees as well as a Graphic Designer who does print and digital media.

I'm meeting with some realtors already so would prefer investors but am open to anyone.I'd be happy to buy lunch in return anywhere you like.Most importantly i need someone that can be objective about things - here's what i mean.If i'm looking at a property that you would never buy, i need the advice to be along the lines of: personally, i wouldn't buy it because of x,y,z or it doesn't fit my strategy because of a,b,c etcBut, you could buy it, however you would need to be aware of / mitigate a,b,c and so on.Most people will just say no, don't do it or yes do it but can't really articulate why - it's all down to personal preference.

I have other reasons for purchasing these properties than just short-term cash flow, but it's a good place to be that the properties will meet my investment objective without any further development. 

I am currently executing a digital marketing strategy that will allow home buyers to find dream home on instagram.

It has been that way for 6 years straight with double digit every year.
