Investing in Northwest Connecticut

[Linda Marois]

My partner and I are starting a real estate investment company around the area of Torrington, Connecticut.  I have $50,000 cash and excellent credit.  We are looking for a total rehab property that we can buy with cash and then get a personal loan to fix it up so we can do a refinance,  We'd then like to use the equity to buy another property.  My partner does construction and I am a real estate paralegal and bookkeeper.  Any advice would be helpful.
