My Frist Flip and My First deal!

Hey BP, 

I has been a while since I posted last and just wanted to get a update on how my journey is going. Well I have managed to land my first deal!! I partnered with my cousin and went in on a big duplex in Detroit Michigan. We bought it with cash and are doing a delayed purchase with a hard money lender. The property is in pretty good shape for how old it is. What we are planning on doing is converting it from a duplex to a monster single family house. This seems to be all the rave in our area right now. We found this deal threw the MLS and had help from a local contractor that we know that has lived down there his whole life to give us insight on where we should buy. The demo will be starting this week, and after the demo we should have are electrical, pluming and HVAC down.

Just want to say thank you to BP community these forums and the podcasts and the people here. This place has helped push me to do better in my life and for my family. 

If you would be happy to talk to anyone especially in Michigan and in the Detroit area about there journey and any deals they are working on. I am also willing to explain more about the flip we are doing if your interested.
