I've often wondered if Tucson might have some long term legs as a possible tech hub, since it has a low cost of living, good weather, great university with sound technical departments and research and that liberal/hippie/hipster vibe that seems to attract tech.

Hello,My husband and I live in a rental in Orange County, CA. 

Hello BP,I am working on my first seller financing deal (hope to get an answer tomorrow) and it is going to require some leg work. 

@Jeffrey GiffinMy wife is similar, hopefully if I ever convince her to join BP and share my passion for RE she wont find this thread...haI probably had a leg up in that I already had one property when we got together so she's on board for more and has lived through a couple others.Not sure how you take care of your finances - could always start your own accounts or if you have your own, simply use money out of it, forego a large purchase (upgrading the car etc)Now might be as good as time as ever to hone your negotiation skills....Good luck!

Just to give you some info about me, I'm fairly new to this site and I'm looking to get into buying and holding in northern New Jersey (multi-families in Newark, Jersey City , Union, Orange, West Orange, South Orange etc...), Flipping property in NY metro area  and also investing in vacation properties.

Please note she painted the entire house except for the kitchen colors of orange, yellow and blue.

I'm new to SLC via Orange County, CA, a licensed agent, and small time investor.

Servpro is a national brand that will cost you an arm and a leg.

We discuss how the deal will be structured and that we will take care of all the leg work.

We are in Orange County California, and are licensed brokers/contractors.
