New Investor from Gastonia, NC

Hello, everyone. I'm a new investor looking to get started in wholesaling/rehabbing/shortsales, but I think I would mostly like to do about 60% wholesaling/30% rehabs/10% shortsales eventually. I've spent the last 10 years building up an aviation career, the last four of which were spent as an airline captain. I come into this business knowing nothing other than being a firstime homeowner since 2003. I've joined the Metrolina REIA in Charlotte, (which recently won the award for best REIA in the country), and I'm doing the mad scramble to read and absorb everything I can. My biggest hurdle right now is getting past the mental barriers that come with doing something brand new, as well as forming and implementing a marketing plan to get my business going. I would be willing to network with anyone and gain/share ideas. It's do or die for me and family. This is important stuff.....so I'm serious about it.
