New Member Working on First Deal
Hi Everyone! I’ve been listening to the BP podcast now for several weeks on my long commute to and from work and decided to start a profile and introduce myself. This sounds like a great community and I am excited to connect with people with similar goals and interests. I am a full time pharmacist and my husband entered back in to the work force about 2 years ago after staying home with our two sons for 6 years. We started a home renovation company and have had a lot of success over the past 2 years, but we have always had the goal of investing in real estate and recently decided to go for it. We closed on our first deal, a fix and flip in Summerfield, NC, at the end of July and are currently doing renovations. We hope to be done in about 4-5 weeks and it is going well so far. I am currently looking for another fix and flip opportunity between my full time management job and training for my first ultra marathon!

Hi Kelly, you are to be commended; 2 kids, ultra marathon AND flipping- WOW :)
Wondered if you have been viewing any of the auction sites? I generally see a few new properties in a variety of areas in NC weekly- many not too frightening.
Glad you're onboard!
