What's up BP/Philly! 

I just moved back to Philadelphia (Fishtown) from Baltimore, and am looking to connect with local investors and learn about investing in the Philadelphia market while I save up for my first house-hack/live-in-flip/BRRRR deal. I have experience managing contractors, listing and leasing rental properties, and designing websites, and would gladly offer my time and skills to active investors who are willing to let me learn from them while helping grow their business. Any advice getting to know the market, thoughts on a live-in rehab/rent/refinance in Fishtown/Kensington, or people looking to connect are much appreciated!

Go Birds!!

Very impressive! I am a newbie interested in flipping and the BRRRR strategy, and this example was super inspiring and easy to follow. I do have one (maybe dumb) question - could you please explain how you got the $64k figure for net cash at refinance closing? I followed everything up to that point...

Thank you!

Wow thank you all so much for the responses and look forward to seeing you around the site! 

What's up BP!

I am an aspiring real estate investor, currently working in construction project management in the Baltimore area. I grew up just outside Philadelphia, studied Civil & Environmental Engineering at the University of Pittsburgh, and have been working in Baltimore ever since.

I am new to the BP forums, but have been listening to the podcasts and doing some preliminary research for the last year or so. My current real estate interests include flipping and buy & hold / house hacking, and I hope to jump into my first deal in the next 1-2 years.

I'm super excited to join the BP community and can't wait to take advantage of all the great information and connections it has to offer!
