Hello from Houston, TX
Hello everyone. My name's Michael and just wanted to introduce myself to the forums real quick. I was actually on here a few years back but real life forced me to have to abandon what plans I had aspired to then.
Currently my mother and father have allowed me to come in and help him out in their business flipping houses. It will allow me the opportunity to learn the grunt work and whatever else he deems me worthy of learning as far as the actual ins and outs of dealing with contractors and other legalities that go on behind the scenes.
I don't come in empty handed though. I've studied marketing both on and offline for years as well as web/ graphic design. I'm currently designing/ copywriting their business website, as well as social networks, to help give them an online presence. Though their handlings have always been with bank foreclosures and REO's in the past, I am looking to help them expand in scope to attracting and dealing directly with homeowners looking to sell fast at a discounted rate, as I have studied wholesaling pretty extensively for years.
I've also discussed contracting out deals that may not fall within the scope of properties or locations they are looking to work with at this point to other investors or short sale professionals who would be interested in them.
I'm looking forward to trying to bring value with the skills/ knowledge I have to hopefully help them expand their business, while also learning skills and knowledge they have achieved from their actual hands on experience. Either way, I look forward to the challenge.
I look forward to meeting and connecting with others around the BP community.
Respectfully,
Michael
