Becoming a Wholesaler in Orlando / Central Florida

Hi guys

I've been wanting to become a REI for a very long time, and have been devouring this site and the podcasts like a maniac over the last couple weeks. I have some pretty specific goals and I believe they are achievable in my market, but I want to hear from more people from Orlando/Central Florida to see if I'm on the right track.

1. Start a wholesaling business - of course I know I need to find some investors locally that can show me the ropes here and I need to find cash buyers, but I believe I have the skills to get this done.

2. Begin flipping properties once I've secured enough capital and knowledge from the wholesaling business.

3. Begin to buy investment properties in about 3-4 years once I've developed enough capital for good down payments from my wholesaling/flipping business.

I know it would be a good idea to begin attending my local REIC meetings to start connecting with people. We actually have a group of local newbies meeting this Saturday for the purposes of getting to know one another.

I'm a professional photographer/videographer, so if any REI's in Orlando that would like to share some info with me, I'd me more than glad to help you out in marketing your properties with pro photos and videos.

@Sam Alpha thanks so much for the awesome words of advice. I will put myself out there more with my marketable skills. I really want to learn this business forward and back, and am willing to lend my talents to do so.

I'm definitely sure we'll meet soon in some capacity. I'll be getting more involved in the local REI events as the coming months swing by.
