I live in the Birmingham area and have been in construction for the past 20 years. The last 6 years I have been in business for myself helping real estate agents getting houses ready to sell for their clients and I have been helping other flippers Bo their flips. Now I am ready to get out there and do it for myself, and I am terrified. I have a real estate agent and her company helping me and I have a private investor who is willing to provide some gap financing on my first deal and if I am able to make a profit he will provide more financing and I also have the help of another flipper in the area who has been in the business for many years. Even with all that backing me I'm still terrified to take that first step. I am a regular listener to the podcast and am hoping to get plugged into the community here and I am very anxious to make that first deal.

Hey Jeremiah. I'm new on here and this will be my first deal as well. Like you, I have listened to podcasts and they make me excited to learn how to make a confident decision. You probably have nicer weather down there in AL
