Hello, I am new to real estate and hungry to learn and experience the different strategies of this industry. I am a full time carpenter in the union and very eager to put my tools and knowledge to work for myself, and by doing so gain financial freedom. I am 22, and I do not know a lot about real estate but would love to get into the house flipping strategy. I am still paying of student loans and debt and don't have much money saved up. If anyone can point me in the right direction or if any local flipper in the Morgantown area needs a hard worker please let me know. I would really appreciate any advice given.

Hello Xavier,
I'm not a flipper (yet) just a buy and hold investor. Congrats on having a good mind set at a young age as well as being a skilled carpenter. The sky is the limit.

Yo X, sounds great! I flipped my first one last year, made 30k. Put the money to work by buying a college duplex & had a new construction built here in Morgantown. Gimme a call, we’re get together for a coffee, your treat :)

Not lend. I do know a small bank that lends and I have used at least 3 different ways to get my real estate. I have single family condos and town house
