Hey Everyone. I'm Tyler Lucas. I looking to network with other industry professionals. Ive been a contractor for some years, specializing in the last 3 years as an investor focused contractor performing 18 full gut flips in that time, and hundreds of smaller projects. In the last year I have done 3 flips of my own, and have wholesaled 4 properties. looking to meet investor friendly agents, investors looking for project consulting and contracting, investors in my market looking for off-market properties. I would love to build some strong relationships in our local market.

Hey Cliff, are you still looking to sell this property?

Hey Lamar, great to meet you, I have recently ( last 2 years ) been working to break into the same industry, with some success. my advice, talk to sellers. you have a few choices when it comes to how you receive leads, you can do outbound, thats calling. Call 1000 homeowners this week. you can do inbound, send direct mail, or buy leads from a pay per lead provider. you need to be talking to people who want to sell their houses. best of luck, lets connecrt.

 Doug, great advice. I’d love to get together for a coffee. 

 I’m looking for both! It’s good connecting with you Tyler!

 Hey David thanks, I’d definitely be I terested and coming to the meet up.

I've spent the last 15 years as a carpenter in central Florida, the last 5 as a Investor focused rehabber running my own business helping others make massive gains and generational wealth, a few months back I decided I was going to start investing myself. I have yet to find my first deal, but I have made massive strides in education and networking. I've read every book biggerpockets has to offer and many others, I've created an LLC for my investing purposes, I have invested in software (DealMachine, PropStream) to facilitate a deal funnel and have had small success locating motivated sellers. My plan is to find deals, evaluate them for my purposes and if they don't make sense for me, then to wholesale them to others, I have 3 such deals in the pipeline, but I still have missing pieces in my own team. I need to find financing partners to help me with capital to close deals for flipping and eventually buy and hold. Would like to meet potential partners/team members to help with that end of the process.

I’m looking for suggestions of lenders who work with new investors, would like to hear about who you’ve used and how the can help me close deals.

I got connected with an investor who does 25-30 flips a year through a mutual friend, and helped him on numerous flips. Since that time I’ve helped a couple other investors I’ve met over that time. I believe what has driven me to focus on working with investors, has a lot to do with my flexibility and ability to perform most of the things you can do in a home, and eye for design and detail. I’ve embraced my skills and knew that I wanted to be involved in RE, and this seemed like a good starting point from where I am in business and life.

I am a full rehab/Reno contractor in the NPR area. I see this post is a month old but in the future if you need any help or even consultation please feel free to reach out.
