Hello BP!

I am a Newbie to Real Estate. I don’t not own any properties as of yet. I started trying to wholesale last year but I was Unsuccessful. I had a few properties under Contract but they did not work out. Now I am studying for my realtor license. I am Interested in every aspect of real estate. I want to buy and hold, flip, sale And eventually work my way up to commercial real estate and multi units Buildings. But I feel lost and Overwhelm. I don’t know where to start!! I have been taking advice from others and have learned that you really can’t listen to everyone. BP family if anyone has Any suggestions on what I should do please let me know thank you for your time

Start at the beginning.  You want to learn everything about every aspect of real estate.  However, at this point.  You need to focus.  Evaluate your needs, wants, strengths and weaknesses.  When you decide on your strategy tune out everything else.  There will be many bright shiny objects.  Stay the course, make some money and then evaluate your situation again in 1 year.
