WWYD--What Would You Do?

What would YOU do if you:

- Had a full time W2 job with decent income and lived in the suburbs of Chicago

- Were great with business writing, marketing, talking to people, sales and making things happen

- Were interested in long term buy and hold

- Had spent way too much time studying REI, going to meet ups, networking on BP, evaluating deals, but still lacked the confidence to move forward?

- Did several yellow letters campaigns in an effort to wholesale, but found that the market had shifted, deals were becoming scarce, and you found yourself competing against more seasoned wholesalers who were a lot more savvy than you?

- Found yourself FINALLY READY to move forward to get your first deal a year later, but were still in need of mentorship/guidance to get started???

I have a lot to learn.

But I have a lot to offer when it comes to business.

How do I transfer these skills so that a seasoned investor can find value and be interested in working with this newbie, so I can *finally* get up and running investing in real estate?

Thank you for any input that will help this newbie get unstuck! :)
