Excuse the Random pics, Im not too bigger pockets savy on uploading a lot of pics at once...  feel free to ask any questions!

Long story short... I started out with a condo and a single family rehab before the crash in 2007-2008. Flipped the one house and had to move into my rental and at 20 yrs old I couldn't find any financing anywhere so My investor career was put on Pause as was the same for a lot of people around me. So in 08 I started working for a few REO national Vendors doing, Property preservation work, The grass cuts, clean outs, minor repairs etc.

Increased that work , lost work, had prices cut, you name it, it was a struggle to say the least, However the past two years I was able to partner with another contracting company and together weve grown, we have multiple crews at our disposal, an in house licensed electrician, plumber and hvac guy, concrete finishers, carpenters, general laborers an in house realtor etc. We have seen the absolute worst homes and completed completed excellent rehabs. We currently are providing majority of our services to a company who made a bulk reo purchase here in the suburbs of Cleveland and they are happy with their progress in our market thus far. We have transitioned out of REO work for the most part and work on our own rehabs along side full rehabs with the out of state investor.

In the near future we will be bringing on investors who will serve as private lenders on rehabs which will be sold conventionally in most cases.

I have tons of pictures that wont make this post but here's a few!
