Hey everyone! I just wanted to share with you all that I just got licensed in Texas! I shared this at the REIA meetup and everyone congratulated me. I feel like this was such a huge step for me. I feel that it helped prove that I mean business with RE. I am planning to begin wholesaling here via driving for dollars. I just sent out a 149 letter campaign and am now negotiating a deal with a motivated seller! :D

I am in Lubbock and am wholesaling to raise enough capital to begin B&H

Taking action is what matters.  Small steps at a time will lead to big change.  

Are there any other licensed wholesalers in Texas who have some tips for me to expand my business?

I was encouraged to begin looking at finding ways to establish a line of credit.  I do not own my own home and am a college campus minister. My *salary* only allows me to tinker with about $200/mo in marketing atm.   Once my first wholesale deal passes, I intend not to eat the profit, but roll it straight back into my business.

I am considering a few things.

1.setting up an S-corp (or LLC taxed as an S-corp?) I need to do more research.

2. building a website (thinking of using oncarrot/fiver)   Any recommendations?

3. Learning Podio for CRM  -  I have been told there are some preset podio packages available.  Any recommendations?

4. Business Cards -  This is a priority for me.  - any recommendations on design for handing out to potential bird dogs?

thanks again everyone for your continued support/encouragement/advice
