Carlos is a seasoned real estate investor and proud owner of Ridgewood Property Investments. A company that buys, fixes and flips properties in southern California with an emphasis in the Inland Empire. A licensed Real Estate agent, he will on occasion represent buyers and sellers in a traditional manner as well.
Carlos is originally from South Bay Los Angeles, son of hard-working immigrant parents from Mexico. Growing up in the inner-city taught him many life lessons and credits his parents for his work ethic and navigating the neighborhood gang violence of the 90’s.
After graduating high school Carlos worked many odd jobs but finally landed a career in logistics and when his company announced they would move operations to Ontario, Carlos saw this as a way out and chance for a fresh start in 2008.
After years of obsessing over the real estate industry, Carlos bought his first rental property in 2011. Always dreaming of quitting the traditional 9 to 5 job, he decided to dedicate more time to investing. Working 2 jobs to save enough to launch his flipping business which he funded 100% for 2 years. In an effort to grow his business he would discover advantages of leverage and in 2022 became a full-time real estate professional. Finally quitting that 9 to 5 job.
Carlos is married and has 2 kids.
