Introduction, totally new, goal to buy first property in 2019

Member since 2019 · 5 posts · 1 vote

Hello All,

I am totally new to real estate investing. My goal is to close my first deal in 2019. I want to buy and hold a duplex or triplex rental property somewhere in the Los Angeles, CA area.

A little about me: I'm a self employed equipment leasing broker, and have been since 2012. We essentially do hard money equipment deals for businesses. For example, if a construction company needed to finance a crane but their bank said no. 

Looking forward to learning as much as I can!

    Welcome Ian, 

    Let me know whereabouts in L.A. you're particularly interested in. I know of a few properties in the next month or so that will be coming up on the market.

    Anyhow, if you need any help, you can reach out anytime.
