I am a new member living in Californaia. New to investing in Real Estate, however, I have bought a few houses over the last 12 years. But they were primary. So I understand the basics. Never bought an investment property before and looking to jump in soon. Been researching the RE industry for about 3 years now. I think it's time to take action.
I hope I can find some good information and hopefully start this chapter in life on the right foot.
@Rohme Williams Rohme, just remember that you make your money on the buy. If you still own the houses, you may think about 1031 exchanging the funds into your targeted property, depending on how long you lived in the homes and at what times. BiggerPockets will certainly be a good resource. I certainly don't know of anywhere else where you can connect with highly sophisticated professionals and engage in open debate on a topic of your choice for free!
Welcome to the RE investing club !! I would say, Pick an area, find good lists of motivated sellers, Market daily and Never give up ! the great deals come up ONLY after you have put in the time. I would recommend to get some great audio books and youtube, or Biggerpockets everything you need to learn.
Then just get out there and start submitting offers $$

You can always start with a Turnkey in Arizona, California is a bit pricey for investing, so I read from folks in CA
So, Decide which kind of investor you want to be (SFR, Commercial, Land, Tax Liens, Passive, HML, Multi-Family, Notes, Fix & Flip, Buy & Hold, "Subject To", apartments, duplexes, assisted living, REOs, Foreclosures, Short Sales), etc. Decide how much money you have access to, & the zip codes, city or state you want to focus on. That will determine the next step. Outline where you want to be in five years. Put it all in writing. Start working your plan. There are plenty of people around to help you each step of the way.
Here is a sample:
