Is flipping for me?

Samuel Pierson

Greetings,

I am a mechanical engineer in the Boston area. I am looking at the very real possibility of a job loss in the near future. I have decided at my age I am 54, its time for a career change. My monthly financial needs are minimal, I carry no debt. I am interested in researching what the pitfalls of flipping homes can be, so I can really decide if its for me. I am in the position that I could occupy the home while remodeling it. Earlier in my life I worked in the construction trades and built a 1600 sq. ft. home by myself. I can do most all phases of home repair far better than the typical home owner. I hope to use my skill and my available time to begin home flipping. Time to read and learn.
