Newbie from Southern Michigan

Hello ~ Greetings from southern Michigan, David & Rachel here, just starting out.  We are husband/wife team doing repair, remodel, and renovate for others while obtaining homes to do the same and to flip to first-time home buyers or start-overs.  We've never seen the TV shows, just always had interest in doing this, and after losing our home back in the '08-'12 ordeal, we wanted a way to help others in need of a home. Once husband got his contractor's license, and a tiny inheritance for starting capital, a whole new world of possibilities seemed to open up to us.  We had hope for the first time in a long time!

We need to learn a lot still in setting goals, getting structure and taxes in order, and the whole employee thing figured out, OSHA? etc. but we are here to learn and glean and grow!

As far as real estate experience, we've currently completely flipped one, almost closed on the 2nd, currently rehabbing the 3rd, and waiting for a close date for the 4th.
