Learning the ropes of investing from Dalton, Georgia
Hello everyone. My name is Corey and I am from Dalton, GA aka the flooring capital of the world! I am a flooring salesman and MBA student. I enjoy my work very much, and honestly, the MBA is just a plan B to ensure that I always have value somewhere and never have to worry much about money. That's not to say I don't enjoy learning about business and value the knowledge, but you know what I mean :) But, I would truly love to become a successful investor, even if it meant on a part time basis while I continued in flooring. I read J Scott's Book on Flipping Houses and learned a ton. So, I am here to learn even more from you all and perhaps even network a bit. If I can secure financing, I would like to begin my first flip in 2016. Thanks for reading and best of luck to you all!

Hey Chris. Good to meet a fellow Georgian! Yeah, I have heard a lot about the podcasts and will definitely get around to checking some out. In regard's to J Scott's book, I definitely recommend it. He very clearly spells out every little step of the game. A great resource. I don't know if this offer is still available, but when I purchased the book, it also came with the book on estimating rehab costs. I haven't gotten into that one yet, but I'm sure it won't disappoint. Good luck to you on your first flip! I think the most critical part is just taking the first step after getting educated. Once you can work up the courage to take the plunge, it is (hopefully) game on!
