Hello Everyone,

My name is Michael and I am a licensed residential builder/remodeler and home inspector in the Metro-Detroit area of Michigan. I have been self-employed for over 20 years and have done many projects for residential and commercial investors as well as a few flippers. My business partner Stephanie and I are forming an investment company and have been researching real estate investment and rehabbing for the last year and are ready to put what we have learned into action.

We are actively looking for our first property and are looking forward to this new venture. We are both very motivated and have no doubt we can succeed, especially with the information available here at biggerpockets.com. We found out about biggerpockets.com through a real estate podcast and the host spoke very highly of this site. I have been reading these forums and have been so impressed with the wealth of knowledge and the selfless sharing of information and ideas that I joined and plan to become a paid member in the near future. Great to be a member and look forward to becoming involved.

    @Michael Harden , welcome to the site. You are correct that there is a wealth of knowledge.

    We have a pretty good Metro Detroit contingent so browse around and reach out. @Aaron Yates and @Tom A. have arranged monthly meetups for BP members so be on the lookout for those as well.

    Welcome Michael! Infinite knowledge here on the site and with the big group of investors in the Lower Michigan/Metro Detroit area. Most are very active on this site and at meetings and have helped me tremendously. Look forward to seeing you around soon!

    @Michael Harden , welcome to BP. As @Brett Russell mentioned, lots of knowledge here.

    We just had this months meetup this past Tuesday. @Tom A. and I haven't planned next months event but we do post it once its set up.

    Most of us here will help if we can. Since you have knowledge in the industry you should do pretty well.

    Heck, I'm going for my Builders License so maybe we can exchange knowledge sometime.
