New investor in San Diego, CA

[Trish DaCosta]

Hello everyone! Name is Trish and I came across Bigger Pockets on a podcast recently. I'm brand new to real estate investing and my goal is to purchase a duplex or triplex out of state in 2021.Where? No idea! I'm still in the research phase of all this but looking to make connections.

Hi @Trish DaCosta

Nice to meet you here on BP! I am a local real estate agent in San Diego and I also invest out of state. I recently closed on a triplex in Michigan and have properties Ohio as well. I'd be glad to share the details with you if interested. There is a lot that goes into choosing a city out of state to invest in. I like starting off with cities I've either been to, plan on visiting or have friends or family there. These are not requirements but just a starting point. You'll also want to research things like economic and population growth, schools, crime, unemployment etc. Good luck, let me know if there is anything I can do to help.

 What part of Ohio? 

Columbus!
