They cannot and will not get these from formal school education, and they are crucial life lessons that parents are best equipped to teach.

Since I am trying to transition from a full-time career as an industrial equipment inspector into a full-time real estate investor, I would like to find someone who specializes in real estate.

We have construction equipment, excavators, trucks, cement trucks etc and large portions of land around the island but we are looking for funding to execute.

Used equipment is ok but a gamble depending on how it was installed previously. 

Getting in the habit of making offers (set a goal of one per day) allows you to gain hands on experience on the analysis side and that will equip you in creating awareness of what a deal is, what it looks like, smells like and what is not a deal.Taking this type of action is something you can do to get started.  

Inside- a spacious and warm, single family dwelling, fully equipped with top of the line products from the 80s that are fully functional.

Add insurance, bonding, employees, PEO, equipment as you scale up slow & steady.

The cash flow isn't great these days, but the market is solid, linear, and cash flow will improve with time, so as long as it's cash flow positive on day one, and it doesn't look like we're going to have to drop a few grand in the next 5 years to replace equipment or a roof, I want to be there.

I am interested in investing in the Chicago real estate market and would like to use this community as a resource to better equip myself with the right tools to do so.
