New to wholesaling, where to start?

[Andrew McManamon]

Hello everyone, I've been doing a great deal of research about wholesaling and I'm getting a better understanding of how it works, but where do I start? I understand the concept of finding motivated buyers and sellers, the contracts, assignment or double escrow, but what's the best way for me to just dive right in without having to spend a fortune on mentors who turn out to be real estate gurus? Also, I'm 19 years old and don't just have a lot of money to throw around. Any advice would be much appreciated! Thank you, Andrew McManamon
