Great information here @Wendell De Guzman . Being a new investor who will also be wholesaling to build my capital this thread great. I don't think many new wholesalers know you need earnest money to close deals. I know I sure didn't know at first.

Thanks @Tyler Flagg ! It was awesome when they told me over the phone, felt like my journey was finally starting.  I am definitely on BP and Zillow all the time now trying to soak it all in.

I'm still trying to understand how to analyze properties and how to figure out how to actually know if I'm getting a deal or not. I know about looking up comps in the area and also finding ARV (which I don't know how to find) by calculating repair cost. I want to wholesale as well to help me with building capital for buy and holds.

I haven't gotten my first deal yet either but I want to send out direct mail to absentee owners this week. It's very exciting and I myself am a little nervous but I'm sure that's part of the adventure.

@Brandon Proctor my pleasure. And, FYI, if you haven't already I'd check out the 0% down VA loan - my dad is getting that one. I had no idea those things existed until he told me about them.

 Definitely that's also what I'm doing 0% down and going to occupy for the year so I can make it an investment property down the road. 

That's great news for the area, I'm so close to that area and jobs here have been on the upswing as well.
