Unless you've been trained within a market/craft niche at another's expense ( ie your prior employer ) you'll lose your shirt jumping into this game in todays market.

This is the season for contractor-refugees from the residential construction collapse to totally lose everything learning how things go wrong in commercial construction.

That paradox will only make sense after you've tripped yourself up trying to work at the tempo customary in tract construction.
Be very, very wary. Only proceed with veteran talent.
