Hello Biggerpocket folks,
I am a new investor living in the Oakland area. I am looking to Flip properties on the East Bay, CA . Investing peaked my interest when I got involved with the Armando Montelongo product. Nothing has happened from that of course because what they're offering doesn't fit current income and is too much of a risk. Since I have been educating myself through youtube videos, online reading materials, and books. I've been doing my homework and still have lots to learn I'm sure. If anyone has good advice or a deal I could possibly benefit from, please don't hesitate to contact me. Thanks ~VM

What's up, from Oakland! I still love this market, but local investors are making money all over with all kinds of strategies, in and out of state. You and @Andrew Hewatt should come out and say hi to some other local investors at the meetup. I'll be announcing another one in Oakland shortly, and monthly in SF.
Hearing what others are up to is a great way to get a lay of the land, on top of all the good information and feedback here on BP..
I own in Oakland and Richmond, and like the cash flow relative to some others. But there are tons of options out there..
