Hello Bigger Pockets,

I am here to learn as much as I can about real estate investing. I've been married to my high school sweetheart 30 years (as of next month) and we've raised 4 children, but never had any luck with real estate. We're living in only the second house we've purchased and we definitely bought at the wrong time -- right before the bubble burst. The first house we purchased was in a small town where no one ever moves to or around in, so it stayed on the market nearly a year. So needless to say my husband is adverse to real estate, but I want to learn how to do it the right way and secure our financial future. Spending the last 30 years on one income, raising 4 children, and losing a fortune on our house has left us with nothing in the bank and still about $300K in debt. 

My interest is in flipping houses because I love managing projects, but I need to find a way to start producing income sooner rather than later. I look forward to networking with you and learning as much as I can.
