Hello from Fort Thomas (it's in Northern Kentucky)!

I am a new user looking for general information on what path to take in my real estate journey. I have been in sales since I was six years old (selling creepy crawler earrings) and have been in the sawdust of real estate since my father made me clean up the remnants of his last renovation (around 10 years old or so). I'm in a field sales position now which allows a certain degree of flexibility. 

My wife is an interior designer (commercial, licensed) and father in law owns his own HVAC company... so real estate seems like a natural fit for my family network. He's getting close to retirement but he's the type of person that always needs a project. We renovated (and rewired - eek) our current house all on our own (did the work ourselves) and I really enjoyed it. I've been working on houses (repairs, remodels, etc) for some time and am excited to work on something that can provide financial benefit to me and my family. 

The areas of interest thus far are flips and rentals. I'm very interested in learning the details of deal evaluation as well as the day-to-day property management. Also, I'm excited to learn more about the technologies that exist to help manage these deals/properties. 

It looks like there is a robust and growing community here and I look forward to learning and contributing as much as possible.
