Hi everybody! My name is Sam and I live in the South Florida area. I have been interested in investing in Real Estate for a while and am just now getting ready to take the plunge. Will be starting off with a flip in the near future, as I have some experience in renovating my home, and flipping can hopefully generate the income to eventually get into buy and holds. I've been listening to the podcasts and reading countless articles from the site, so I am very excited to begin this journey and immersing myself in the BP community.

@Sam Bleek Jupiter is a great place to live in palm beach county. I used to live and work in Boca but decided to move up and commute to Boca because I like it that much better up here. 

As far as investing in Jupiter goes, its really tough to find a deal. Its a hot market, awesome schools, safe, very desirable place to live. Very similar to Boca in a lot of aspects, including the higher price tag. 

If you can find a DEAL here that actually works for a fix and flip, TAKE IT. It will sell. But probably not the place you want to focus on for a flip. 

Palm Beach County is a big spectrum of areas, ranging from the low low to the super high. Find an area or two you like thats somewhere in the middle and HUNT for that deal. Its a fast, competitive market here so it helps to know where/what you are looking for that way when it does come along you can pull the trigger quickly before someone else does.
