Starting Out and stump on the next steps

[Anthony Joseph]

Hi everyone, Its been a while since I posted something on bp. I've been doing a lot reading and learning from all the resources on the website. This site has given me the confidence to make the plunge and start up my llc and network with other investors in new jersey. My main goal is to purchase distress properties, rehab, and sell at retail. I have been thoroughly educating myself on the every aspect of the rehab process and learning my market. I am planning to create a case study packet of a distress property in my area. This packet will be a report I will present to lenders. My goal is to ask them if I were to present real deals like this one, would you consider listening to me and potentially fund the deal. I am also planning to get my real estate license to gain access to MLS. I feel like I'm taking the right steps but I feel a little stumped. I want to know from other rehabbers (new and experienced) how did they focus their energy in the beginning phases on building their rehabbing business.
