Soaking it all in...In SC

[Susan Knight]

Hi again all,
I can't stop reading the forum since I signed up. I currently live 20 minutes from Myrtle Beach, and work at a Correction facility in my area as a Nurse. I have been there 3 years and love it, but I want more than a paycheck. I currently have been listening to Sean Terry's podcasts, bought Monica Breckenridge's book and today on a podcast I realized, if I feel that I have to learn all I can before the big leap, i will never do it. Yesterday I came across a very cheap foreclosure on the Bank of America web site, I emailed for more information and contacted the listing agent. before I knew it I was brainstorming what I would do with the property if I can get it. It made me very excited, i almost couldn't sleep. Prior to this I have been brainstorming about how do I start out in this business with little or no money down. Worried I wouldn't be able to do anything, which leads to doubt, I don't want that, but I am unsure of how to start the ball rolling. But yesterday when I got so excited about the deal I found, it made me think, I wanna buy low and sell enough to make a nice profit. Not break the bank, just make some money to get to the point I can then make bigger decisions on selling my properties. With this said, I think foreclosures are going to be what I get into right now. My fiance is a contractor and he stopped by the house today that i am interested in and from looking in the windows, the floor has some major issues, but the rest of the house looks ok. Even if I don't make the deal on this house, and I move on, it will be worth that excitement I felt last night that I was jumping in with out thinking how. I made the contact and got the ball rolling, I plan to do that again, trust me, I will not let my excitement overtake reality and guide me in a useless situation...
I am thankful for this site and still, I am reading all the time to the point I have to make myself put it down..
Have a nice evening all

Susan
