So brand new from Scottsdale AZ

[Vincent Lewis]

Hi, I'm Vincent Lewis, and im brand new to RE. Like everyone else I want to be successful in my endeavors so here I am. I've watched pretty much every fix, flip, flop, build, restore program out there and dreamed of doing it myself but had no clue how to go about it. Im here for advice, training, direction and connections now matter how small it may seem to you it can make a huge impact for me.

Having spent the last 5 years in as a General Manager in the Lease to Own industry, I'm hoping to use the skills I've developed to start my journey in real estate.  I have all sorts of thoughts and ideas and how and what to do, but no one to bounce them off of so I feel like I'm stuck and am honestly very leery about jumping in the pool.  By nature I am very analytical and I am trying not to overthink the RE game but I can't help it, I'm like a sponge when it comes to information, GOOD AND BAD, I just soak it up.  And now I'm more confused than I was before I started my research. 

I moved to AZ from Chicago in August of 2008 and at the beginning of 2009 began to experience the economic crunch, however by the grace of God I was able to make it through.  Scratched & Dented but not broken.  Like so many people I have gone through the struggles of the economic downturn and have decided that ENOUGH IS ENOUGH it's time to take action but in comes that million dollar question, "Where do I begin?"  

Again any tips, tricks, strategies, etc..... can make a difference.
