I’m based in Orange County and currently work a W-2 job for a real estate developer. My experience is tied to budgeting and project management, and now I’m ready to start building my own portfolio.
I’m really interested in getting into house flipping and would love to connect with people who are active in the space. My goals are to learn the process hands-on, join local groups or meetups focused on flipping, and ideally find a mentor to help guide me.
For those of you who flip, what were your first steps that made the biggest difference? And are there any SoCal or OC-based groups you’d recommend joining?
Appreciate any advice or connections you can share!

@Chris Tarin Great to meet you here! I’m based in OC and currently working on flips throughout the area—one is hitting the market in North Tustin in a few weeks. Would love to set up a time to chat!

Hi @Chris Tarin, nice to meet you here on BP. Sounds like you're in a great spot to get started, especially with your background in project management. Connecting with active flippers and walking real deals makes a huge impact. Look into OC REIA and local investor meetups—lots of people are open to sharing knowledge and partnerships. Excited for your journey ahead!
