Hi there I am seeking a referral to a large contracting group or contractor that has done apartment re-positioning work.Please PM me with a referral only if you've had personal experience with them.

I want to start my financial freedom as soon as I get back by obtaining a positive cash flowing property and a full time electrical job, then after a few years go get my degree once I’m financially stable.

I have an idea of creating a hotel booking website.

Keep getting educated so you can position yourself to take action. 

I was willing to do all those things that petrified me, and because ive done it, ive produced positive results.

I used a 10% off coupon + paid in HD GCs which were purchased for 85% on the dollar on gift card reselling websites. 

We bought at a great time (2011-2013) and at prices that equated to a "2% to 3% rule." 10% was way too high and a couple of years later he brought it down to 7%. 10% was unsustainable and 7% made it more break even.I am sitting on a substantial equity position but I would not do this again.

So glad you re-discovered Bigger Pockets.A few tips that may be helpful to you here on the Bigger Pockets website as you build your portfolio:You can set up keyword alerts so anytime someone posts about any of the markets you're evaluating, you'll be notified.

I put it on zillow which populates trulia and other websites and I usually have 15-30 people show up on the weekend.
