I’m currently in LA and plan on buying a rental property any tips on my first go ? and how will it look in 2 years

You should get pre-qualified first @Ruben Marquez and figure out your budget. The market will go up, and it will go down, and it will go up again.

@Ruben Marquez

Save them chips because the LA market is one of the most expensive in the United States.

If you have Chips, a great credit score and a great paying job, you can do it.  The competition is steep but if you are prepared for when the deal comes across your plate then you can get it done.

Good luck!
