Hi Allison, welcome aboard!  I'm john a newbie investor/ handyman in the lawrence and topeka area

Minor electrical is what I’m best at, recepticles, switches, fixtures. I can do dry wall patches and install sink faucets as well

Looking to connect with some real estate agents or investors looking for a reliable handyman in the Topeka and Lawrence area. 

hello everyone, I'm John and I've been on here for a couple years but never really active. Recently I started a handyman business (fix it solutions) with the goal of investing in real estate. If you're in kansas and looking for handyman or wanting to connect with people in your area hit me up, I'd like to get a group of like minded people together and discuss goals.

 I know most property managers aren't very good. there are 3 property management companies in my hometown and none really have a good reputation. My main goal is to change that

 thank you for this. getting our business off the ground is gonna take a lot of work from both of us doing multiple tasks but overtime we're gonna hire multiple employees that will have strengths in areas her and i are weak. overall we want to build a dapendable management company.

hello,

My girlfriend and I have spent the last year discussing starting a property management company, we've both taken a strong interest in real estate investing as well. I have a background in the trades and can fix most issues that arise and if i cant fix it I know someone in that trade who can fix it. My girlfriend is stronger with the day to day operations, talking to people, understanding personalities etc.

so my question is what advice would you give to two newbies starting down this road? 

@John Ringgold

Thank you. I’ll definitely give you a call soon and would love to meet up for coffee or lunch

@Alex Olson

Not sure on size and price point yet. I’m still really new so what I’d like to invest in and what’s feasible are completely different. I just know I’d like to invest in multi family homes

@Derek Felch

I’d like to attend if that would be ok. Lawrence is definitely one of the areas I’d like to break into
