How Creative Can We Be?

[Ellis Thurman Jr]

Hi Guy,

I'm new here, but you'll be seeing a lot of me from here on out. 

What's fascinating about real estate investing is the investor ability to be creative and make money/fund a deal. I am trying to put my mindset in a stance of "how can i make this work" instead of "this won't work, insert limiting belief"

I'm the typical newbie investor, spent most my money trying to create a social media following. Have websites up, doing direct marketing campaigns  and internet marketing w/ PPC, and spending money on education; real estate agent course, a lot of books (also bigger pockets books). 

Wholesaling in Baltimore is competitive and it'll take time to rank well on google and my website is optimized but young. I don't care for wholesaling and it's not my ultimate goal but seems to be a necessity at the moment (no money not much credit.) My question is, I'm looking to purchase an multi-unit family deal w/ FHA Loan. Are there any savvy investors that can offer advice on what you'd in a situation like this? I don't even have enough to make a down payment on FHA loan. I'm looking into private money but I'm trying figure out if there is a way to make it work without private money.
