New Smyrna Beach, Fl newbie

[Thomas Ingles]

Good evening! My name is Tom Ingles and I'm getting started in the New Smyrna Beach and Central Florida area. I have been working as an Independent Adjuster for five years now, 60-80 hrs a week. The hours don't bother me but the travel time away from my kids does. My four boys are my motivation to be successful at RE investing. I want to learn from anyone that is willing to talk to me so I can one day pass that onto my boys! I am a veteran of the U.S. Coast guard, held a RE lic. while I managed condos, I had my own home inspection business and I built over 200 homes as a superintendent for DR Horton Homes. The one thing I haven't done is buy a house. I want to take my experience and flip houses and maybe even get into multi family. I feel most comfortable flipping due to my experience as a contractor. I know the work, I know how to schedule for a quick flip and I still have my connections with the trades and various subs. I am week on the financial end of the business though. I wish I had found this site sooner, I would more than appreciate any help and advice anyone has for me. I will respond to all and maybe I can share some of my construction knowledge.

Thank you for taking the time to read this, it is my pleasure to meet all of you.
