Not really a new member... Located in East Kentucky.

Hello everyone!

I have been a member of BP for about 3 years but honestly active for about 2 months, then life happened for the rest of that period. Just a few weeks ago, had an accident and got a concussion. May sound crazy but it made me realize that I have to take action...

So I am back. I've signed up through Real Estate Express to take my agent license course online. Mostly for the education but also the possibility of extra income and the other benefits.

I've got a property that I am drooling over...it's listed at 27K but I got a pretty good hunch I can get it much lower... I haven't viewed it yet...but plan to.  

Experience-wise

My father-n-law is an excellent carpenter and we have completely flipped the home we personally live in. We also have rented out our basement apartment + some short term renting as well.

Great sense for design on the part of my wife.

I'm really wanting to do rentals to build wealth...our area is full of poor quality rental properties and absolutely none that are what I would consider high end. So we would like to try and fit in that niche and I believe in our ability to do it.

Funding is the issue...so I am working on saving and paying down some current debt as hard as possible. Hope the realtor license will assist with this as well.

Glad to be back on!
