Looking for help getting started

[Josh Franco]

Hello Bigger pockets,

I am reaching out to you seeking guidance and clarity on how to enter the world of wholesaling real estate. While I am enthusiastic and motivated to put in the necessary effort, I must admit that I currently lack the financial resources to invest in this venture. However, I firmly believe that with the right knowledge and guidance, I can overcome this obstacle and make progress towards my goal.

I am eager to learn about the strategies, techniques, and resources that can help me succeed in wholesaling real estate. I understand that wholesaling involves finding discounted properties and assigning the contracts to other investors for a fee, without the need for significant upfront capital. I am willing to put in the hard work, dedicate my time, and learn from experienced professionals like yourselves.

I kindly request your assistance in providing clarity on the following aspects:

1. Where do I start? Courses? Mentorships? Masterminds? 
2. How can I effectively find distressed properties and motivated sellers in my area?
3. What are the key steps involved in negotiating and securing a wholesale deal?
4. Are there any legal requirements or licensing I need to consider in my region?
5. How can I build a network of potential buyers and investors interested in purchasing wholesale properties?
6. What educational resources, books, or courses do you recommend for someone starting with limited funds?

I genuinely appreciate any advice, insights, or recommendations you can provide. Your expertise and mentorship would be invaluable to me as I embark on this exciting journey!
