Welcome man. Definitely take advantage of the free course under the education area. It'll help you a LOT.

Yea @Kevin Siedlecki I'm not sure if I worded it correctly. I'm still doing my best to learn this new language and convey the proper ideas. Thanks for being patient.

I'm trying to figure out a way to acquire the property from him to flip it or rent it out.....or if there is a better way to do things, I was basically asking for insight.

Not sure if I made that more clear or not.

No I'm not a broker. I was thinking of buying it from him, getting repairs done, then flipping it. Is that the wrong way to think about things? I'm still trying to figure this all out.

Hey BP,

Need a little advice. I'm BRAND NEW to Real Estate. A coworker of mine bought a home about 6 years ago for $30k from the bank and has been living in it since then. He stated he's been performing DIY projects on the home during that time period. The home is paid for outright. He estimates his home value to be circa $100k. I think it could POSSIBLY be more with professionally completed upgrades but haven't seen the property nor pulled any comps for the area yet. He is considering the possibility of selling, but I don't want to botch this potential deal.

Can anyone help or advise me in approaching this situation? What things should I gather in order to figure out the best potential profit margin for both of us (ie. Win-Win situation)? I hope that's the right question to ask.

BP,

I'm brand new to RE as well as this site. I just wanted to tell you that I took the last couple of days to go through your Free RE education course at my own pace...it was quite frankly...OUT-FRIGGIN-STANDING!

I've recommended the course to several others interested in RE, but more importantly, I feel a lot less nervous about moving forward. Thank you for putting that together. That education was priceless.

Thanks @Stan Sugarman. I'm sure I will. I'm making use of the free course online so I don't ask something stupid that can be found in resources that are given to us.

I really appreciate it @David Nguyen. Maybe we can schedule something after the holidays. I'm always up for learning and providing whatever value I can to others.

Douglasville is a good area. I love it out here. Quiet like the country, building up like the suburbs, but close enough to the city to have fun.

Thanks for the welcome Sam.
