Hello BP community

[Mike Bowling]

I stay in the Akron,Ohio area. I know a lot with construction and basement waterproofing. I've been reading multiple forums on BP for about 6 months now and listening to the Podcast. I want to invest into real estate with rentals flips and whole sales and anything I can get my hands on. I'm ready to take the plunge!! I'm tired of working for the man ripping people off by charging ridiculous amounts to waterproof a basement! I have the potential to be my own boss with my dedication and knowledge I can do anything because I fight for it. What are some tips you lovely people can give me?
