Newbie trying to learn the basics of "Wholesaling"

[William Pace]

Hey all, Im a college student and freelance graphic designer living on the Mississippi Gulf Coast. I would like to get into real estate. I read that wholesale real estate is a great way to get your feet wet if you have little to no money, which describes me perfectly. 

Does anybody have any tips for getting started on the wholesale process? Any advice at all would be greatly appreciated. My dad owns several properties and knows other people in the business so finding a buyer shouldnt be too hard, or so I think.

go to the dollar tree buy those dollar boards, split them in half, write we buy houses on them with a Google number on them and nail them up around town. Also drive the neighborhoods look for abandoned houses write down the addresses go online to Harrison County tax accessors website and see where the owner lives. Send them a letter saying you wanna buy their house. Just to start. Hope that helps
