Newbie in Los Angeles
Born and raised in Minneapolis/St. Paul, went to school in Milwaukee, lived in Chicago for 9 years, moved to Los Angeles in 2017. I'm a CPA that focuses on tax structuring, due diligence and contract negotiation at an investment firm and have always considered investing in real estate. A few months ago I started reading some real estate investing books and after leaning the basic math I started seeing what it could do for my future wealth projections. I now officially have the itch.
I'm interested in buy-and-hold rental properties and currently researching markets outside of Los Angeles for one that fits my strategy. I have some capital and a financial/analytical mind, but very little experience in real estate. Would like to begin investing in the next 6 months and buy a few properties per year. Using the 10x rule, I'll say I'd like to retire with 1,000 doors in 25 years.
