I am a graphic designer by day and aspiring real estate investor by night.I have been doing a ton of researching, reading books and listening to podcasts on the this subject and decided it's finally time to take action.I am working with a Hard Money Lender and currently looking for a single family residence to fix & flip.

I'm looking to start with buy and hold rental properties in my area of Clark County Washington. I welcome all experienced mentors advice because I want to learn all I can. I want to associate myself with smarter peopl...

I work a full time job as a graphic designer in movie trailers, but I am a father and would love to have more time at home.

Some hand-written, some with only graphics. 

Coming from an artist/graphic designer background I have learned that its hard for people to visualize what the finish product might look like.

@Ian Hoover I believe that craigslist has been making a lot of changes over the past 6 months, most of which are to discourage the use of things like postlet ads and spam.Here are their rules:Lead capture, loans/financing, services, offers to buy, lists/directories, and/or driving users to a website are not allowed.please do include:all relevant information about the specific property you are sellingmultiple high-quality photographs of the specific property on offerstreet address, and location on craigslist mapplease do NOT include:cartoon or graphic images, photographs of yourself or other peoplelinks to "more information" elsewherephotos with "click below," contact info, or other writingsearch links, or information about multiple propertiesadvertisement for services of any kind, including financing or loan informationadvice about buying and/or selling and/or market conditionsSo the basically made it so that you can't have links on your posts, and your posts have to only be for one piece of property, and all the information has to be contained in the ad.

I find it kinda of funny that as a graphics and website designer by trade I've never actually been a member of a forum.

Musician, painter, photographer, graphic designer, dancer etc. 

In saying that If I had an investor partner I believe could competently flip houses much in thanks to the fact that I am creative (graphic designer) and I love physical work.

Joe,the graphic below captures the kind of capital requirements needed to invest in hotels compared with apartment buildings and houses.
