New contractor from Jonesboro, AR

[Laden Conley]

Hello BP! I'm a new contractor from Jonesboro, Arkansas. I've been working as a carpenter for 5+ years now and recently applied for my contractors license. As I've got my LLC setup, I feel as though I'm about ready to start tackling projects on my own. I'm currently looking at possibly finding a foreclosure to flip or building a spec home in my area. Our real estate market is doing very well due to a long period of sustained population growth, and I would like to use this to capacity myself into being a small business owner. I am eventually interested in investing but I am going to start small until I build up some capital to work with.

I hope to provide my area with a contractor they know they can trust to do the job right. I read so many horror stories about bad contractors. My goal is to provide any investors/clients with a great experience from start to finish. Just because there are bumps in the road during a project doesn’t mean we have to fall off the wagon! Hopefully I can use knowledge from personal experience and from other sources like BP to accomplish all of this. Thanks for reading!
