Looking to get into the industry
Hello All,
I am totally new to this industry. I was recently laid off from my job and decided why not now. I had always wondered about real estate but didn't know where to start and I didn't have any money and credit wasn't the best.
After seeing a ton of videos posted from people about wholesaling I was like wow that sound great and I know I could be successful doing this. I am wondering because I know what I have seen is just the ups about and not the downs.Tje crazy thing is to even talk to them they want thousands of dollars. I am looking for an opportunity to learn and grow my knowledge.
Marcus.
