Hi everyone! I have been reading, studying, and writing down anything and everything real estate investment.....particularly Wholesaling. I picked up the "Wholesaling Bible" by Than Merrill and have been glued to it, since their 3 day workshop. I unfortunately have no money saved up, struggling to pay rent, and have really bad credit (due to school loans). From what I understand Wholesaling is the best way to start out with the situation in in, because I was told it was a quicker way to start up some capital. And advise or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. And is the book I'm reading a good book to start off with? I'm fully committed and definitely have the time to do it! Thanks for taking the time to read this... Help! 😕

Hi Silvana,

Welcome to the site!

Not to rain on your parade but effective wholesaling is expensive. It will either cost you $$ or time and if you have a full-time job I am guessing you don't have the time. 

My suggestion would be to try to get on more stable financial footing before jumping in. There are low $$$ ways to find leads but they tend to take a lot of time. 

I would suggest possibly seeking out some wholesalers and asking them how you might be able to help them part-time.  

Good luck.
