Chaz, Thank you! Much appreciated!

If guys or anyone on BP have any inspection related questions I'd be glad to help out. 

Chirag, That would be great. I'll give you and Marc a shout when I'll be in Nassau. Do the same if you're ever out east by me. Thanks.

@Marc H. Thank you!

I have family in Franklin Square. I also do some inspection work in Nassau, but with the snowy/cold weather its a bit slow now. I'll send you message to let you when I'll be in your area. Good luck. Be safe. 

Hi All,

My name is Harry Mikros. First, I'd like to say thank you to everyone for making this site awesome. Like many here, I found the BP site by chance...what a score!!! 

In my 50 years I've worn many different hats. For twenty of those years, I wore the hat of a NYC police officer (retired). My current hat, since 2009, is that of a NYS home inspector. I have 15 years experience in construction/home improvements. I've owned a few start up businesses in the past but was never able to take them to the next level due to my law enforcement commitment.

I enjoy doing home inspections and anything to do with real estate. I've had a few opportunities in the past to purchase property but due to a lack of time, knowledge, and/or funds, I could not commit. Now that I'm free of my "regular job" I have more time to work on my real estate business/goals... 

My goals: 

• Get my RE license, learn the ins and outs of RE law, learn my market
• Gain the wisdom of the RE business.
• Learn the many ways to finance and find lenders
• Learn how to find and make deals
• Find my niche and have a back up plan  
• Buy my first property ^^see above^^
• Purchase multiplex units that produce a nice monthly cash flow

I enjoy a great cup of coffee and/or a nice cigar. If anyone would like to meet up and talk some real estate, give me a shout.

Thank you and be safe!
