Investor finally jumping in the deep end in Los Angeles...

Hi everyone! After several years of lurking and reading and calculating and God knows how many podcasts, I am finally taking the first steps. I am in the San Fernando Valley and looking forward to working with many of you and getting into my first deal. I would describe my target as a D+ to B- properties in C+ to B+ areas. I am primarily interested in utilizing the BRRRR method to start my portfolio. Additionally, I am also very interested in acquiring an apartment building with strong upside potential for upgrades and rent increases.

My day job is working in the film industry.  I am very hands on with building things and have done a few remodels and sold a few properties in the past.  I just entered escrow selling 2 properties which are seeding my investment fund.  I have strong family ties in the Salt Lake City and Idaho Falls areas and interested in those markets as well.  I work regularly in Atlanta and am not opposed to investing there as well.  

This is my official transition from studying-and-learning to actively-searching-for-my-first-deal-with-the-means-to-close-it!  Thank you all!

-Justin

@Justin Edgerly Sounds like you are already off to a good start with some finished properties which is more than most people have done. If you need any help in the Idaho Falls and surrounding areas feel free to reach out to me and I'll do what I can to help out.
