I've always been drawn to real estate investment and flipping property. I attempted to purchase my first investment property in NJ when I was 19 years old. I later got involved in assisting others with their flips. I moved down to Charlotte in 2005 and thought this would be a great market for real estate investment. The economy took a rough turn with the housing bubble bursting, so that put a strong halt to my plans. I now have two houses here in Charlotte, one of which my girlfriend and I are renovating. We purchased this house in 2011 as a foreclosure in a transitional area. We've uncovered a lot interesting things in this house. We jumped into this prepared to roll up our sleeves and get dirty. We had no clue what we were getting ourselves into! Stay tuned as I share some of our renovations stories... the good the bad and the hilarious.
I thought I was the only (amongst my peers) that was interested in doing something like this. I have an uncle who has been flipping property in the DC area for years and he really enjoys it, not to mention, he makes a ton on extra money on top of his career. I got into it after watching show about flipping properties. Hopefully I can purchase my first property right out of college and begin investing in the real estate industry. Good luck!

I have always had a great interest in real estate investment. I used to work for commercial carpet cleaning company and our company would solely work for real estate companies. The process of buying and selling houses brought our carpet company plenty of work and opportunities.
