Read the BP forums long enough and you see many amateurs with no construction/rehab experience and no deal analysis/negotiations/transaction experience, but after a few months of reading forums, books, listening to PODcasts, they are ready to invest....but rely heavily on their realtor and contractor and other team members.You'd have a natural advantage, if you can tour/inspect a property and devise a rehab budget, and be able to execute that rehab.So....I see a natural transition from a contractor that works for others, to a contractor that works for others and does 1 fix/flip or fix/hold himself a year....to a contractor that works only for himself and has 2 remodels per month going.Separately, many of the cities/markets discussed here on BP, search the threads and see how often someone is asking for a referral of a quality contractor....you could be in high demand, working for investors....even if you chose not to invest.
