Hi BP!
I am very excited to have found this site. So far I can see there is a lot of information and many people I can learn from! I am completely new to the industry and have an interest in building a successful flipping business. I actually stumbled across this site while Googling "Is Fortune Builders a Scam?". I attended a 3-day seminar and was completely gung-ho about cutting a check for $25k for their education program. I owe BP a big thanks for saving me a nice chunk of change!
I'm interested in learning all that I can; learning what things to look out for, how to properly asses a deal, how to find good GC's that won't rip me off, multiple exit strategies in case something goes awry, information on taxes and benefits of an LLC, possibly finding a local coach/mentor that won't charge me $25k...pretty much everything I can learn!
I'm hoping to find, buy, fix and sell my first property by May....a little less than 6 months. Hopefully with some solid advice, you guys can help me get there! Please connect with me if you have any insight or advice to give!
