Rochester,NY Real Estate!

[Andre Wilson]

Are there any wholesalers, rehabbers and flippers here on BP from Rochester,NY that have any advice on RE in the Rochester area I am eager to get my foot in the door but really don't know where to start. My main focus is on wholesaling RE to build cash flow  but I want to become more educated before I take on my first transaction.
