Full-time Flipper starting in the Knoxville, Tennessee area!

Hello everyone! My name is Gerald but I go by Jerry. I am a budding flipper in the Knoxville area and starting full-time this year. I am not a native but I have family roots in the city and am greatly looking forward to connecting with other investors as I make my home in east Tennessee. I have been doing my homework for months now and am in the process of closing on my first rehab. As a military veteran I am very excited to enter a profession that I believe presents a wonderful opportunity to give back to the community. I look forward to hearing from all of you and maybe even working together in the future!

@Gerald Valentin You will certainly like the Clinton - Norris - Knoxville area. Beautiful lakes, excellent hiking trails and solid opportunities for real estate investing. There are a number of veterans at the KnoxREIA meetings and they are some of our most successful investors. If you sign up for the free email list from KnoxREIA. com you will see postings for flips and contract assignments for sale - which should help you get up-to-speed quickly in this market. It does cost to attend the meetings, so you may want to follow the topics before you attend. There are many postings on BP such as "My First Knox Reia Meeting" which will give you additional insight to the group. The meeting tonight is on Planning - What You Have Learned is Not What You Need To Know and continues our theme for 2017 - The Best of Times and The Worst of Times for Real Estate Investors

Happy Investing

Victor
