Hi everyone, I'm excited to join this forum!
I began flipping houses in 2022 and left my 9-to-5 job last year to pursue real estate full time. I've just finished my fourth house and am now venturing into short-term and long-term rentals. My biggest hurdle has been securing financing to work on multiple projects simultaneously. Am hoping to use this as a network to build and learn. Any suggestions are appreciated.
Best,
Melinda
