Hello Jay, this is a very generous offer and I would like to be considered. I live in St. Louis, moved here in May of 2016 and by July acquired two houses which I am rehabbing - - one to hold for rental income, the other to flip. I am new to the world of real estate investing and figured the best way to learn, next to reading, courses, podcasts and networking is to jump in and start 'doing'. Needless to say - - being new in town, new to real estate investing, new to major rehabs, this adventure continues to be quite the learning curve for me but it is also confirming my passion for real estate, even on days when I am overwhelmed. I meet all of your criteria (live in StL, have cash, newbie) and would love to take on the next project with guidance, sharing my experience with this community and ultimately benefitting a deserving charity. Enjoy your vacation and thank you for making such a generous and exciting offer! Astrid
