I'm Bryan O'Neal and I'm a residential contractor in a really depressed market. I'm looking for any opportunity to make a better living. I've always known that real estate had multiple options for wealth  building but aside from owning a few rentals, have not done any investing. I saw one of Cody Sperber's videos and started asking some questions online about his Fast Track program which led me to BP. I would appreciate any feedback on that particular program but I sure am glad to have found this resource. As I've already been reading, marketing is key in this biz and that's probably where I need the most improvement so I'm looking forward to the positive experience I can glean from this online community. I'm looking to start out learning about Wholesaling and any other ways to begin with little or no money. I'm also an independent insurance adjuster. I believe that I can use my damage estimating and reporting skills to generate reports that buyers might be interested in to make a purchase decision with. Does that sound useful in anyone's experience? I look forward to hearing any and all input. Thanks.

Hi Bryan, and welcome to BP. I own some properties in Hickory and really like the opportunity there. It is a depressed market to an extent, but the rents are pretty good for the prices you can get houses for. There are also opportunities for flipping low end houses under $100k. As a matter fact, I am working on a flip in Newton right now. Hopefully it will sell!
