Hi guys,
I'm looking start flipping houses & buying & holding rental properties in North Orange County (Santa Ana, Anaheim, Tustin mainly) & Riverside County.
I have 15 years of construction estimating & project management experience which helps with the rehab side & recently became a licensed Realtor.
This whole thing is in order to create enough income to spend time with my family and kids! I have a beautiful wife & 3 small ones under 4 yrs old. Born and raised here, unfortunately it's one of the most expensive places to live! So we have to hustle ! :) It's amazing to me the opportunity that the Real Estate provides the average person to have financial security and not be tied to a traditional 'day job'. In no other profession is opportunity to succeed so available from day one. It's great and I look forward to learning from many wise and experienced investors here.
I'd like to network with any wholesalers who work the area along with private lenders & my fellow flippers. Thank you all in advance!

Isaac Melgoza Welcome to BP. There is a local meetup in Lake forest every month that you should check out. http://meetu.ps/2QWCkh
If you would like to meet up before then and talk about investing let me know. I am in Mission Viejo and can meet at a Starbucks.
I am currently flipping homes in Orange County and just purchased a home at the court house steps.

Hi @Isaac Melgoza. Welcome to the club. As you can tell there are many resources here for you to absorb in. Don't hesitate to ask questions along the way. I'm a local investor in the LA and Orange Counties. I just closed escrow on a house a few weeks ago and will start another flip soon. Good luck!

Welcome to BP. I was just in riverside and loma linda today visiting some relatives and frieds. My uncle just let me take a big bag of oranges home. Good luck in your investing.
I am definitely using the resources this site provides. Getting started with the basics and looking forward to more advanced topics such as using 401k funds to purchase :) I'll be asking you questions soon enough buddy!
