Hello, I'm new to Atlanta and just starting out in real estate. I would like to make a career out of flipping houses and use this as a way to invest in buy and holds in Atlanta. Given my experience I obviously am still learning everything I can, however I can certainly add value to a partnership. I have some working capital and time. I have a lot of my own tools, a small truck and a little know how. I am capable of basic plumbing, electricity, Sheetrock and general handy man work. I would not call myself efficient at any of these but you will not find someone with a better work ethic.

Welcome to BP. I would be more than happy to give you some advice. I'm an investor in the Atlanta area. Give me a call at 770-608-2314 and we will discuss some of the properties I have and how I can help you.
@Justin Robidoux - Welcome to BP. You are at the right place to help move your REI needle.
You do have some skills coupled with other things mentioned and I am sure they can and will be put to good use by fellow BP members. I will certainly keep you in mind as well.
Actually, I will be in Atlanta tomorrow on a business trip and will send you a PM.
@Justin Robidoux Welcome! Rehabbing is an important way to add value to any home. However, it's time consuming so you shouldn't be the one doing for too long. I think it's a good idea for every investor to get very familiar with what it takes to do the rehab tasks well.
Having said that, it's paramount you learn how to find and win deals. Be sure to allocate some time to learning this not just rehabbing.
