Hello all. This is very impressive!
My family was in real estate for many years and I was an active Realtor in Spokane, WA for about 6 years. I have been a residential remodeling contractor for 40+ years. I really like construction as a lifestyle, but need to create income for retirement and to build some wealth. The money is tied up in home and business, so I'm looking to find ways to leverage my contracting skills to aquire property, as well as other strategies.
I work with a number of investors now on their properties and I've managed rentals for owners, so I'm familiar with that area. I just want to learn how to put the whole package together and hopefully find some opportunities.
Of course I would be happy to make connections with investors who need an experienced contractor too, but I understand the rules about where to talk about that.
Thanks for a great website and group of people. I'm really looking forward.
