Rick, Robert and Ken thank you so much.  Great advice I will definitely act on.  Robert thank you for the offer I will definitely take you up on it.  This part of the business is completely new to me and I want to make sure I do it right.

Hello everyone.

Just starting out on our journey of flipping. Having done real estate for a few years as a part-time agent, my friend and I decided to see if we could flip a property. We have done the basics: trusted lawyer, interviewed contractors, estimated materials and started looking for the "one", reviewed comps and areas close for us to manage. Presently waiting for a short sale to be approved. Is there anything we may have forgotten to do? I'm a full time financial analyst so I have done all the financials using all the guidance in the forum. However, wondering if we should create an LLC for the first flip or wait to see if this really does become a viable business for us. North jersey is not the easiest area to find good flips as there is a lot of competition. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
