$1,209.54 to Invest - San Antonio, TX

[Matthew Allen]

I've spent the last few weeks reading & listening to stories & wisdom to get my start in real estate investing. My simple plan is wholesale 3 houses, flip 1, then see where that leads. I have peeled aside $1,209.54 to start. Any suggestions on the best use of funds? I've initiated operation driving for dollars (wrapping up a project 4 hours away, so limited time currently) and I'm open to mailing to lists, but don't want to just light money on fire and call myself an investor. Any tips on the most effective place to start would be helpful.
