Hello From Akron-Canton, Ohio

[Brian H.]

Hello, my name is Brian. I am new to real estate investing scene. I have been reading BP forums for a while, and decided to finally introduce myself.

I started out trying to jump into the rehabbing properties, but I did not have the liquidity to follow through on any deal I was after. I am now starting to dive into wholesaling.

I'm looking forward to meeting and getting to know fellow investors in my area and here on BP! :D

Welcome to BiggerPockets Brian. You are on the right track by networking with investors in your area if you want to start wholesaling. The key is to build a big buyers list and I would try making friends with local investors and those doing deals in your area. Look for the "We Buy Houses" ads and for those ads offering to finance the sale or do lease options, land contracts, etc. These are the guys that are doing deals in your area. Make friends with them and figure out what they need and fill the need.
