The corporate life is becoming very monontonous and way to political these days so I am taking the plunge to learn a bit more about REI to hopefully someday (soon) make a leap and fulfill a dream.My experience is limited to a few books, some great reads here on the BP forums, growing up in a DIY family (so I am pretty confident in basic carpentry), and priding myself with common sense.

This is the simple "Pergo" style stuff.

The concrete look has to go with the style of the house interior for it not to look out of place and cheap.Personally, I would not want concrete floors in my house.

I will take the risk since it is from J Scott creator of the Flipping Book.Building-Business-CreditDisclaimer: All that I am an accountant in real life, this is not accounting advise.

I suggest you ask questions and participate (don't take over the class, LOL) hopefully you'll get an instructor who has financial experience that can relate the materials to real life instances and not just read the book.

Tell them about your property and ask them to pull sales of similar size, quality, and style properties in the area that are in similar condition.

A large part of my life is doing the next right thing, but I still have to make money, and there is definitely money to be made here.

I'm sure plenty of you are familiar with this town since it is the home of the U of O Ducks football team.I have lived here my whole life after a short stent of being away when the economy tanked and jobs were almost non-existent.Since 2012 I have moved back here and started an air duct, chimney and dryer vent cleaning business.

I live in the Chicago area where I have lived for the majority of my life.

While there is a lot of great advice, help and encouragement on this site and in books, and courses; nothing will replace what you learn on the street.By getting out there, you learn your weaknesses, your strengths and what you really need to work on in your life in the real world!
