I am F/T flipper of vacant lots in TN & AR but not doing so well at the moment.

The fact that you own your own home means that you know what it is like to actually buy a property, obtain a loan and other details such as maintenance.To get started spend some time reading.

Since I do have a RE license in NC I obtained an exclusive right to sell contract, representing the sellers for 120 days.

If you were obtaining loans as a primary occupant and then turning them into rentals the bank might take issue with that. 8)
