Taking the first steps in REI - wholesaling today
Hello everyone,
I still feel like I am spinning my wheels in getting started in wholesaling. I am looking to become successful in this business and quit my job asap. I suppose it would be easier finding a partner to work with and begin working in this business, but it has been hard to find someone that would like to work as partners. I have taken a guru course, attended seminars, listened to podcast on this site, but I just haven't taken the first step.
There are so many things that I do after work that get in the way of becoming a REI. I suppose the most important thing is priortizing what is most important each day. I hear that I need an RE attorney, accountant,purchase bandit signs, and more. There seems to be a lot of expenses when starting out, but it would be great to hear from some wholesalers to see how they got started in this business. Thanks!

Make a list of who you need on your team and find ways to partner with them without paying them just for advice.
You want to quit your job asap? Great. A lot of people on BP are very negative when you post big goals like that so be careful when you post, negativity can kill your motivation.
