Hey BP Community,

I've been a member on here for a little while and I'm finally able to get things moving on the investment side of things in my life. I'm graduating college in May, start a job in Chicago in May, which means I'll finally have the capital I need to begin my investment portfolio. I'm now looking for a mentor, but this could be a situation that could benefit the both of us. I'm looking for someone who knows the money side of things. 

What I can offer: I'm graduating as an architect with a minor in sustainability which means I have tons of knowledge of buildings, construction, and even some MEP skills. I've been doing construction since I was 12 years old (thanks to my carpenter of a dad) and I know the ins and the outs of a building. I have the tech and the know-how to make floor plans. I've even done some floor plans for interior build-outs. I work for a multi-billion-dollar general contractor in Chicago which means I have access to structural engineers, building estimators, subcontractors, and basically everything else you need to build something. I bring a lot of value to the table and now I'm just looking for someone to show me the ropes of financing, accounting, and possibly property management.

I'd love to start flipping houses with someone or a group of people so that I can get the capital I need to get into the buy-and-hold game. If there is anyone in the area of Hobart, Valparaiso, Crown Point, Merrillville, or even Chicago willing to let me "piggyback" on one of there deals I could offer some value in the construction part of things. 

Hope this message reaches you well,

Kindest Regards,

Ryan
