New to Real Estate Investing

[Christopher Vargas]

Hi all! I am a fresh rookie to the real estate business with only one completed rent-to-own contract under my belt. I have been researching and growing my knowledge in various aspects of real estate for the past 8-10 months, but no cash to perform. Now FINALLY, I have found an investment partner who can lend up to $50k at one time as well, and I also have a fast and cheap contractor on my side!

So I'm am in the market for cheap wholesale/nonwholesale deals that I can buy-rehab-and-flip. I am looking for single family properties in West Orlando (apopka, ocoee, winter garden, pine hills and metrowest) that will work under my budget. No buy-and-hold for now.

I am pretty solid with my partnerships with my investor and contractor, but any and all other advice is welcome.
