Fixer uppers are probably not intimidating to you given your handyman and construction background. :) I can totally understand the financial potential of fixer uppers though.

Agriculture was the dominant industry for most of human history, then the industrial revolution upended most careers.

And it also isn't transparent to see the background underneath.

I tried my first background check tonight through a company online.  

I hate to see trees get cut down but this tree is to much of a liability and it is not a question of will this tree fall but a matter of when.that massive tree in the background is the ticking time bomb.Well I think that about brings us up to speed with were the project is I will try to update early on this next week with progress.

My friend and I both come from specialty financing backgrounds but are looking to be more involved in Real Estate. 

Plus you already had some background info and will be coming back every once in a while.

Some words of encouragement for all you new investors just like me.When we create an account on any social networking site we decide, do add a picture to the profile.It just makes it look a whole lot more professional and attractive to those, like myself, who try to build a network web.Don't just build an impressive account, with a huge professional background and,then, go dormant.I'm really scared too, but, honestly, what's the worst that can happen...look stupid, you say!

Hi,I have talked to my banker a bit more in regards to a couple of properties I have looked at, analysed, and am interested in making offers on.For a bit of background, I am short on 'liquid cash'.... it's all tied up in either my ROTH IRAs, SDIRAs, a Life Insurance Policy, or the home equity of my primary residence that is paid for and listed for sale right now, partially so I can downsize and use some of the built up equity to invest in more buy and hold rentals.

A 22 unit complex is somewhat small to ask for a company resume however they might want to know your background and success with multi-family real estate.
