Handyman to REI
I am currently a contractor for a non-profit low income family builder. As much as I enjoy what I am doing for the community and families in need, I've been itching to do my own thing. I've already have a good start as I'm living rent free in my own house.
I just don't know the next step. I am taking steps to start up my own gig with small side jobs. I don't have the capital nor the cash flow to afford to be a GC on my own yet. I know people have taken similar steps as I am about to, just curios on how to go about it in the most streamline way possible.
A little about me... I know how to build houses from the ground up. We build new 1000-1300 sq ft houses. I am 27 years old and have been interested in RE since I started working on a construction crew during my high school summers. I live in Lafayette, LA. I would like to start with small projects and work my way up. So.. from handyman to GC to REI with a mixture of all because I still like to get my hands dirty.
