Thank you for the encouraging words, Meghan! I am also in the Revere area! Maybe I've seen your grandparents around or along the beach! :) 

 Thank you, Jay!

 Thank you so much! If you have any tips, being a Boston area investor yourself, please let me know!

@Nadeem Alamgir and @Wale Lawal Thank you both! I am curious to continue learning about hard money and private lending options. Those seem to be a good option for me. I also know that I have a decent amount of equity in my home that I can pull from. Thank you for the reminder about the financial buffer! I plan to keep working toward this as I learn in this community before jumping all in! 

@Tyler Munroe Thank you for this insight and advice. I am certainly considering purchasing a primary home to fix and flip over time as well! I agree it is a good option, and would be more in my comfort zone. Keeping my options open as I learn and wanting to think creatively about what will work best for my situation.

Hi,

My name is Jocelyn and I live just outside of Boston. I am looking to get started with fix and flips, but of course... I'm scared! I have always had an interest in real estate. I love the idea of finding an older home, getting creative and fixing it up. My current home was initially meant to be my first fix and flip, but I am still here 5 years later! And with all the DIY work I've done, I am a bit attached and ideally would keep this home while moving forward with flipping others. I'm at a point in my life where I am looking for a change, desiring more financial freedom and time freedom. 

I am excited to join this community, learn from the experts here, and develop an understanding of my options, creative funding sources, and learning more about the Greater Boston market and where I can fit in!
