Hello all! My name is Marc, I am interested in real estate investing and am eager to make new connections. I am most interested in house hacking and multi-family properties but would love to learn about all aspects of real estate. I am just starting out on Bigger Pockets and am excited to review all of the resources available. Currently, I am looking to better understand the real estate market in Southern California. I would love to connect with new and experienced investors alike, I'm sure there is a lot we can learn from each other!

Welcome to Bigger Pockets Marc!

If you’re looking to invest in your backyard, it helps to network with as many locals in the industry as you can. A great way to start is by attending RE events and joining a local investors association. You can usually find some events by doing a simple google search.
