Long time lurker from Torrance CA (LA area)
Hello fellow BP members,
I have been a long time lurker on these forums. I want to thank all of the members who have shared their knowledge and BP for putting on a platform for them to do just that. I have learned a lot by reading posts, articles, podcasts, BP books and recommendations. I am very grateful for all the time and work people have put in for newbie investors like me to learn.
I work a full time job, and I am in the process of BRRRR my house. I am doing a major addition and renovation to my house and should be finished by July 15. My dad is a general contractor, we are partners on this project.
I will do a cash out refinance and will use those funds to invest in a second property. I want to Spec build in nicer nearby areas (redondo beach, hermosa beach, manhattan beach, culver city, los angeles etc).
I hold a real estate license but do not have it hanged with a local broker. I would like to find a local broker who is also an investor. I got the license only to buy, and sell my properties.
I hope to meet local investors and create relationships even if its just friendly relationships. I find myself talking about real estate all the time and do not have friends with mutual interests. Maybe that's why i find myself reading BP all the time.
