Hello Everyone! I am Michael with Alpha Services and I am feeling my way around the site prior to joining. I am fairly new to this REI world that I have been exposed to and very excited. I currently live in Hendersonville, NC but I am looking to move in the next six months to the Greenville, SC area.

I have been in Real Estate Investing now as a wholesaler for 6 months now.  I mainly work in the Upstate, SC region and attempt to in the Hendersonville area which is easier said than done. I  have closed 2 deals (both being in the SC area) and I am really wanting to dive in and average one deal per month vs one every 3 months.  My goal is to eventually do 1 - 3 per month in wholesaling.  Gather up some funds and find my first fix and flip by the end of the year and in the next 3 years have at least one, maybe 2 fix n flip/holds for rentals.  In the next 10 years, my goal is to have 3 rental properties  and 2 AirBnB's in my portfolio.    Just wanted to say Hi to all.

I keep hearing about the opportunity to use private lenders vs hard money lenders for the purpose of fix and flips but it all seems to be hoops, red tape and flub (from other sites)... Does anyone have a better insight that's not coming from someone that is trying to up sale a product?  :o)   

Kind Regards...

They are.  You just have to make sure they add that or should I say remove the "contract is not assignable" from the contract.
