College Beginner

[Richard Cannon]

Hey everyone it's my first post and I am looking to to get started in real estate. I am in college and looking at wholesaling as a part time job for now but eventually I want to get into real estate investment as my main profession. My question is since I have no credit and getting loans would prove to be difficult, is wholesaling a viable option? Keep in mind that this would just be to get cash so that i can eventually start buying my own rental properties and what not. If it is then how exactly would I get started? I know to get a buyer's list and everything but is it really that easy to just talk to another investor? I guess one of my main problems would be the apprehension about actually going out there and getting started. Is this normal? Thanks for any advice.
