You might learn some things from one that the other don't do/do differently, or see some pricing disparities in repairs, etc that would be educational.

I am a few months new to BP and have been pretty quiet so far reading and learning about BP and real estate investing. 

If you read books and take course to learn how to run a successful remodeling or construction company, they are often the exact opposite principles of what I read in blogs on this site and others about hiring a contractor.  

You have come to the right place learn everything there is to know about real estate investing.  

I would love any advise and look forward to continuing to learn through BP.  

Pursuing my first deal and learning a whole lot along the way!

hello BP familyMy name is Stefan Chirila and moved in California from Romania in 2011. happy to be here and finally taking  my first action and come on board.I am 32 years old, did sport at the highest level all my life, I am married and Civil Engineer, when I moved in US I started working as a labor for a small construction company(didn't have rights, and not shame about that), throughout time I learned the language and got my rights and equivalent my degrees and eventually started to work in construction management as an assistant Superintendent for a very big GC, everything is good happy with my job with my growth in US in a very short time, but always had in me the filling that I can do more then just working hard and make money for someone else, always dream about financial freedom, never actually took actions in that direction. 

I retired from Public Service locally about two years ago.Yes, I am interested in networking to learn more about the Real Estate Investing Business. 

You will learn something new from each one of them.
