Newbie from Dallas, TX

[Blake Byrd]

My name is Blake Byrd, I currently live in Dallas, TX. I graduated from Texas Tech in 2011 with a Bachelors in Business Administration and went to work for a mid-major commercial contractor out of school. I now work for a high-end custom home builder in Highland Park, University Park and Preston Hollow. I am a project manager on projects ranging from $200k remodels to $8 million ground up homes. My fiancé and I recently bought a home with cash in Dallas and renovated it, we plan to rent it out after we move out in 3-5 years.

My goals are to start a custom home building company utilizing flipping, remodeling and ground up construction strategies. Also, investing in multi-family to generate passive income. I am looking for guidance in investing and in entrepreneurship through forums, books, articles, and people. I have been surfing the site looking at articles and forums for several months, and thought it was time to get involved.
