Hi, I need to build capital to be able to invest as often as I'd like. Been looking into Wholesaling to help scale that goal.  

How do I find a mentor that I can actually work with? Is it necessary or is social media sufficient? I am currently reading The Millionaire Investor and Kris Krohn's Strait Path to Real Estate Wealth. What book do you recommend to get started?   

OR should I skip wholesaling and buy a single family- multi family equity out of state to sell for a profit?  

My concern is, I know Mid-West areas do not appreciate and is more for cash flow purposes. But then again, I am a beginner. 

Thank you for your responses.
