Hi everyone, Brand new to the world of REI. Really looking forward to learning a lot about it and what opportunities are out there. I live in Orange County, CA but have family and travel to New Orleans a lot. I would appreciate any help and guidance as I learn about this world. -Joe P

@Joseph Pumilia  Welcome to BP. There is a local meetup in Lake forest every month that you should check out. http://www.meetup.com/Orange-County-Real-Estate-Investor-Networking/

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 looking for my next purchase at the court house steps, while I am working on a few more.

Joe Homs - I would love to meet up for coffee before. I clicked and looked at the meet up but didn't see a get together for the next two months. Do you know the next date everyone is meeting?

Hi @Joseph Pumilia.  In addition to the Lake Forest meeting which is great, there is a relatively new group that meets in Yorba Linda every month.  Feel free to check it out below.

@Joseph Pumilia I live and invest in the New Orleans area. What kind of investment properties are you looking for?

The best type for my experience level (by the way I have none).  Which ever I choose it will be my first and don't want to bit off more than I can handle.

@Joseph Pumilia welcome to BP! Best/first thing to do is get educated. Read read read! Read books on investing in real estate, listen to the podcasts, attend webinars and stay active on the forums while connecting with other investors in your area and pick a niche. Best of luck!
