Post: california residents investing in Houston

I am currently living in the east bay area of San Francisco, with a rental property in San Diego. I am thinking of selling the my SFR in SD and using a 1031 to invest in a more cash flow friendly market. I have been thinking about investing in Houston TX and I'm wondering if any fellow Californians have gone this route.
Im thinking of doing a simpler deal with maybe less immediate equity at first just to get my feet wet and satisfy the 1031 exchange timeline. But then after that I want to pull equity out and start using the famous BP BRRRR strategy to expand my portfolio.
I understand there is a lot of complications with out of state investing, but it seems like it can be done and that the rewards can be worth it!
Any guidance and wisdom is much appreciated.
Post: BRRRR In Expensive Markets like San Francisco

I am a new member eager to learn what strategies work in my market. I just watched the youtube video explaining the BRRRR calculator and how it helps to analyze deals. My question is does the BRRRR method scale to an area like San Francisco? single family homes are close to .75-1 million dollars. Does that change the ability to get hard money loans? Does the high rent make up for the high purchase price? Thanks in advance. Also any additional blog posts or other resources would be welcome.

Hello,
My name is Dan and i am interesting in learning more about investing in real estate. More Specifically i am interested in connecting with people in and around the East San Francisco Bay area of California. That is where i live and where i would like to start looking for buy and hold properties. The market here seems so expensive i am curious to learn what kind of strategies work in this climate.
I bought my first rental property 6 years ago in Southern California, and i am looking to build a larger portfolio. My long term goal is to generate enough passive income from rental properties to live free from the need of paychecks.
