Hey Chris welcome to BP! Congrats on the purchase!

I've had good experiences with Advantage Inspections. A quick web search will get you all of their contact info. Good luck with it!

Hey Sonja welcome to BP! I'm in the Raleigh area and it's an awesomely competitive market to be in. The deals are difficult to come by, especially if the MLS is your only resource, but there is definitely plenty of money to be made here. Your background in interior design should make your transition into house flipping seamless. Stay active on this site and network with folks in the markets you're interested in. Nothing beats boots on the ground when you can't be there 24/7!

Welcome to BP Brandon! You'll learn more from this site than you can imagine about REI. As Dawn mentioned, we do a monthly meetup in various locations throughout the Triangle for local members. Set up your Keyword Alerts and you'll receive an email notification when details are posted as well as when local conversations are going on. Stay active on this site and good things will happen!

@Dawn BrenengenThanks for the mention!

@Uriah D.

Haven't used them myself (thankfully I haven't needed to!) but I hear good things about Alexander Exterminating.

Hey Jamie I'd definitely contact a CPA and get their input. If you need a referral, look up Paul LoRusso with JIL CPA. I'm sure an email to him will bring some clarity to your situation.

Welcome to BP Tresean! As Adam mentioned, we have been doing a monthly meetup for local BP members on the last Thursday of every month. It's very informal networking and more of an opportunity to get from behind the computer and actually meet some of the people in person who you interact with on this site. 

Make sure to set up your Keyword Alerts so you'll get an email notification whenever conversations about our local area are going on. The number of BP members in the Raleigh area is growing by the day so you should have no shortage of people you can get some insight from. If there's ever anything I may be able to help with please don't hesitate to reach out!
