So far the only real estate investing experience I had is buying the house I currently live in. Learned a lot from buying this house. Like, I paid too much and it turned into a total rehab haha. Good thing I plan on living in it for awhile. 

Anyway, my goal is to get into wholesaling and maybe down the road fix and flip. I plan on getting my real estate license after my first wholesale deal. If anyone has any suggestions on the best way to get started in Indiana I'm all ears. I've been told that doing an assignment at closing is a bad idea. Besides paying cash up front when I find a seller, what else can I do? Thanks, and I'm excited to get started! Oh yeah, I've been reading the eBook that was free and watching podcasts too.
