Newbie from the Space Coast of FL

[Clifton Jones]

Hello, I am Clifton Jones. I am from Melbourne, FL and am currently working on a Navy Base. I will be leaving my current job in December to start investing full-time in Real Estate.

I have no experience in the real estate arena, even to the point of never owning a home, but am familiar with negotiating deals.

My immediate goal for my real estate business is to bring in a steady income through wholesaling, as well as rehabbing some during the year. The way I plan to achieve this is to reach 8-10 wholesale deals per month by the end of 2009.

My long-term goal is to generate a steady income through rental and commercial properties. My current timeframe for I have set for this to occur is 5 years.

I plan to achieve my goals through short sales and networking with investors/realtors/brokers from different areas of the country, as well as handling local business along the Space Coast of Florida.

This is all a work in progress and will take a while to complete. My main focus will be the Space Coast for the first few months, in order to start receiving a steady income. Once I have become comfortable with the short sale negotiations, I will be attempting to network in other areas of the country.
