New to real estate investing

[Isaac McFarland]

Hey bp members,

  I am new to this site and new to investing. I am very excited to get started and to see where it takes me. I have been in a general contractor position for 9 years now so naturally I am pulled more towered the fix/flip area. Any advice on this would be greatly appreciated. I am starting to understand the numbers part of it and the forms on this site are amazing but, how do you get started? Funding to be specific.
