I’m in the Bay Area and looking for any local traditional search fund-backed searchers who are open to sharing their experience with me. Trying to understand the current search fund environment while living and searching in an expensive cost-of-living location. I’m planning to launch my search within the next couple months and revisiting self-funded vs raising a search fund. Would love to connect if you’re open to it!

Thanks for the tag ^redacted‌. I live in the Bay Area, but my search is not limited to the Bay, or even to California. That said, I'm happy to connect and provide any insights that I can. Please feel free to DM me.
