@Corvaughn Archie Welcome to the fun:)  The biggest thing is to learn in a “needs-only” incremental approach and to take action. When you are just starting out, there is so much information out there that it’s easy to get bogged down. First determine what strategy you’d like to start with. Then only learn what is needed for the next step. Then once that’s completed, learn what’s needed for the following step, and then the next and so on. This way, you won’t get distracted or overwhelmed. If after you’ve done some deals you want to try a different strategy, that’s fine but when first starting out pick something and stick to it until the end. Whether it’s getting your first flip down, wholesaler deal or rental property, choose only one, see it through and then assess if you’d like to make any adjustments from there. Hope this helps and, of course, be blessed yourself!
