So....I lost my job and while back. I know nothing about real estate, but I'm desperately wishing to learn the ins and outs. Due to my job loss, my credit has suffered. I am currently back working and I did have to file a bankruptcy. It's not easy for me to be this honest about these things. They're very embarrassing for me. I do not have a lot of extra money and I'm from a smaller type of town. However, I am within 1.5-3 hours from Atlanta, Jancksonville FL, and Panama City/beach, also Tallahassee. What's the best advice that can be given for getting started with little to no funding. Maybe wholesaling? I lost the 4 people I care the most for recently and I no longer get to spend time with them since she left, I just wish to turn my life around. I've looked at several "mentors" like Phil putenjoski, Nick Ruiz, and a gentleman named Chris Spencer I believe. Any advice or help is greatly appreciated. I'm not asking someone to teach me everything, just thoughts and opinions given my situation
