14 year old looking to get started by wholesaling
My name is Michael Kantar I'm 14 years old and many of you may know me from the past, anyways I have a new question for all of you here! I'm going to be getting started in real estate by doing wholesaling with a person I met, he's going to mentor me, let me do wholesaling contracts under his name, and we'll go from there! He's from Boise Idaho and I'm from Yonkers New York, so I will be doing this virtually. I was wondering if I should do the wholesaling in my market, Boise, or both? Also, if any of you guys have any advice or tips for me in general feel free to tell me I'd greatly appreciate it!

@Account Closed, you're well ahead of the game in getting started as a 14 year old. There is a lot to learn about real estate, markets, process, and what can be done with a particular property.
I'd recommend that you have a responsible adult in your life (parent, grandparent, someone you trust) have some oversight to help make sure you aren't getting cheated or manipulated - there's something to be said for life experience that you just haven't developed yet.
