I worked in the real estate lending field for 14 years, as well as at a bank as a VP as a Banking Center Manager for 8 years.  I have been disabled since 2012 and have since reading, studied and try to learn to be a good Real Estate Investor.  I actually started with a partnership in 11/2017 and we purchase 2 fix and flips.  We fired a partner and now we are getting back on track.  I have been the marketer, sales guy, deal packager, and my wife and I have done the hard money route.  My wife and I own 2 rental properties in Branson, MO (owned for 3 years).  We are wanting to increase our production to 12 deals (any combination of wholesales or fix and flips).
