I just want to take action! Need advice!

I started getting interested in REI about 6 months ago and I saw it as a very viable way to improve my financial situation and create security. I've read a ton and feel like I have paralysis by analysis. I got into lease purchase but I feel like its very hard work. I've haven't closed my first deal and I've been at it for 4 months! What is the best way to just jump in?? I've heard wholesaling, flips, reo buys and holds, rentals and on and on. The issue is I have no money to use to get started, no for a downpayment or anything. I feel if I can just make 20 or 30k the doors would open and I could buy a rental or do a flip. I just want to get my feet wet and I feel like I haven't. If anyone can offer some advice I'd be grateful for it. I'm not looking for a guru or some class I need to spend money on, I've already put enough money into this and haven't gotten anything out. Thank you in advance!

The best in the U.S.?

Is there a ranking somewhere? Or did these guys win Gold Medals at the last U.S. Real Estate Olympics?

Has your attorney based the BAR in all 50 states? Or do they just allow him to practice law in all 50 states because he's so damn good?


I will answer all your questions on the phone, not here.

Why so secretive?
