I have flipped a few houses during covid and remote working times and was fortunate enough to grow up in a family of real estate investors and entrepreneurs which has provided me mentors and exposure to starting and operating a business.I am thinking of starting my own construction/development company in a few years time and wanted to hear some opinions from people who have done it who are outside of my circle.
