Step one..
Hello, I am a Firefighter in South Florida and am trying to learn and get involved in REI. I have read about how wholesaling is a good place to start for reasons that make sense to me (limited capitol, quick cash, etc). However I have really no idea where or how to start this endeavor. Ive done some limited research of REI in the south florida area and it seems this is a tapped out market. Too many big fish! I would love any advice or info to get started. Thanks and Good Luck to all!
