Hi My name is Kwame. I live in Frederick, Maryland and I am literally new to real estate flipping and investing. I have been doing a lot of reading here and also received some priceless support and teachings from a friend in NC. I am only three weeks into this business and I am writing my first deal, a wholesale property in Baltimore. I want to flip this house, (Can't believe I just wrote that) and I will appreciate all the help I can get from this Forum. I actually stumbled upon this site by accident and I have been reading a lot of the GREAT information here.

The house I am contracting this afternoon is for $5k. Needs some work, appliances, pipes, trash disposal, electrical wiring and painting. Does not have any lead problems. My hope is to get an open house in 4 weeks. Does that seem unrealistic? I am doing this full time so I will be on site most of the time. Kindly forgive me, but I am excited and scared at the same time. I am working with a hard money lender to do this deal and hoping for a good profit after all of this. I am truely new so all the help, motivation and advice I can get will go a long way for me to pay it forward to someone else one day. Please HELP!!

Thank you, Kwame.
