OC Investor meet up?

[David Rutledge]

Good morning everyone,

I am new to the BP community and I am looking to make my first real estate investment this summer. I live in Irvine but I am interesting in applying the buy and hold strategy with multiple rental properties outside of the state of California due to the lack of value in this technique here in CA.

I work in education and I am a complete novice in the business of real estate investing. I would love the opportunity to actually meet/talk with or connect with more seasoned investors who have had experience with investing in rental properties particularly as an out of state landlord.

Is there anyone in the OC area who has experience in investing in rental properties in another state that would be willing to meet with me or even chat on the phone so I can gain some insight into how best I should approach my first foray into the RE investment world.

I live and work in Irvine so if you would like to meet or discuss further please personal message me so we can set something up.

Thanks so much for your time.

David
