We are under contract for a house in Cleveland area we had inspection contingency after looking at disclosure and price point we decided to move out of the contract. before removing inspection contingency. Now seller wants to keep escrow money.

My agent dont tell me where the money is. is it on the escrow account, he is holding or with someone else or to seller. He waited for two days until check is cleared and now he is not responding to my call and emails (not answering my question)

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

My background is in engineering and construction. I have a masters degree in structural engineering from UC Berkeley. My current full time job is a project manager and structural inspector for a residential construction company, located in Gilroy, CA. I currently live in Fremont, CA. I am interested in all sorts of projects. I can provide capitol, construction and project management experience, along with inspecting the properties. My goal within the next year is to become a full time real estate investor. I am very interested in teaming up with people who are hard working and are integrity driven. I am really excited about joining BiggerPockets and taking the next step to financial freedom. Feel free to message me. I am looking forward to it.

I looking to invest out of state, I live in Los Angeles and am looking at either Cleveland, OH or Wisconsin.

Does anyone have recommendations for agents and management companies? Also, does anyone have experience investing in either market ?

Hi all,

I'm Rohan Attravanam, a total newbie into Real Estate Investing but very passionate about investing and personal finance in general. Financial Freedom is why I wake up everyday :). I'm so excited to have found BP and love the vibrance in the community. Feels awesome to be part of it!

I'm reading up on tons of material on site, listening to podcasts, attended most recent webinars by Brandon (Analyzing Rentals). Obviously overwhelmed by so much wealth of knowledge. I'd love to get started and act. Step 1 is to absorb as much info as I can. But step 2 is creating my action plan of networking and choosing a strategy to go after.

Bay Area is a very expensive place to invest for newbies like me. I've family in Cleveland - Ohio, Cary-NC and Tampa - FL areas where I might consider investing for multi family rentals. I'd like to set the following as my goals and would love inputs on my thoughts:

Network locally to understand the industry
Start off with a couple of Wholesale deals so I understand the process
Invest in my first multi-family property in about 4 months from now.

Can't wait to learn from and contribute to this community!!

for debt it includes property tax as well this happens to most of the people in the California specially bay area where most of thevhone are 1 m. I my self in similar situation the way I am handling it is to build a portfolio from strong cash flow property so that my income rises. But I will follow thread in case there is some other way.

Amazing so you are expecting bay area to fall by 50% .seller market is ending but 50% is might be worse than 2008-2009

All the best

I was just in San Francisco and San Jose and looking at the markets there. Maybe I can help you with Seattle and you can help tour me for the Bay Area. I know Seattle extremely well and have been investing here since 2000.

I am not interested in buying in the Bay Area now but after the market crashes By at least 50%.
