Hello BP,

My name is Travis and I'm located in Southeast Louisiana. I've been lurking BP and REI for a while now and I've decided it's time to take action. I've always been drawn to wholesaling and would like to start my endeavors there with eventually trying to buy and hold/flipping. I've listened to many podcasts as well as going through YouTube university so I have a basic knowledge of the wholesale process. Talking with a very good friend who's a successful REI in my area specializing in buy and hold/flipping and is also an agent/broker. He also has a good buyers list and is willing to share it with me. I've came up with a plan and with his guidance, hopefully land my first deal. I have a small beginning budget of $2K. My goal is to be honest with each potential seller and hopefully we all can win.

Please if anyone who’s willing to speak with me about the process I’m all ears. I have my “why” and am eager to start this journey.
