My coach is telling me one thing, but my guts are telling me something else.

Hi BiggerPockets members, I need some guidance with my real estate journey. I have no money to invest on real estate, so I'm planning on using a hard money lender to finance my investments. My coach strategy is to work only with homeowners and not the banks. But I've done my homework and post signs on the streets, call magazines ( the flyer ) to post an ad, I keep in contact with real estate agents to see if they know of motivated sellers that are willing to work with me, and all these without any luck. I've been doing this for couple of months, and I've not close a single deal. I'm at a point where I feel like working with the banks since they possessed most of the properties on the market, but at the same time I don't wanna go above my couch since he had more experience than me. What should I do? Thank you in advance for your answers...
