Hi Everyone,

I'm a 23 year old college senior graduating in December living in Florida.   Over the the course of the last 8 months or so I've spent a great deal of my time educating myself on various aspects of real estate investing via books, podcasts, seminars, etc. and now I feel confident that I have the basics down, but my dilemma is finding the money to make deals work.

My goal is to acquire properties to hold and rent to create passive income.  I'm aware of the wholesale technique, my only issues are that I'm having trouble finding 'motivated sellers' and in the event that I did find one, how do I go about getting it under contract and finding a buyer willing to come in and take it over?

I'd like to make some decent sums of cash off of wholesale deals and start purchasing lower-middle class properties free and clear to rent.

Thanks in advance for your input!
