@Alberto Camacho 

That would be very helpful and I will look into joining my local REIA as well.

Thank you.

I am needing some contractor recommendation in the DFW, TX area that is familiar with rehabbing houses. 

Much thanks!

My partner and I are just about at the last leg to begin to invest. We don't have money to put down so I'm thinking our only option is to use a hard money loan. Do hard money lenders have an option to be pre-approved? I'm asking this because the DFW housing market is very hot. Houses don't stay on the market very long and many get multiple offers on a property on the first day. We would most likely miss out on a property if we have to give the hard money lender the property and also have someone out to estimate the rehab costs to present. Also it would take days I'm sure to actually get the money. I'm pretty sure the hard money lenders don't pre-approve but I don't have any experience with them. Could someone help me out or also give me other finance options for me that is not private money for flipping. 

Much thanks!

Since Texas us a non-disclosure state, I can't find comps in areas that are very accurate. Because of this, I read that I would have to talk with a agent to get the comps and to find properties (from the MLS). (If this is true) Can/will most agents get you your info almost on the fly so you can make a quick decision about trying to get a property, or would it be better to get my license so I have personal access to the MLS?

Hi, my name is Aaron. I am an inspiring real estate investor. I have big ideas in what I want to do and accomplish. I've read a book and been listening to many podcast her on BP. I think I am at that point where I just need to take the leap. Before I do this, I am wanting a mentor who can kind of guide me and keep me from making rookie mistakes. I live in DFW, Texas.

I am currently living in Arlington, TX. I am looking for a mentor who is experienced in hoise flipping and rehabbing. I am wanting to flip hoises in the DFW area and I am currently soaking up information and wanting a mentor to help me be a successful house flipper.

Carey Edmund thank you so much! That's very nice of you to offer and I may just take you up on that offer. Do you know how to find other flipping veterans in the DFW area?

Guy Gimenez I have been! Constantly listening to real estate and flipping pod casts. But about finding an investing partner, I don't have the money to put up or the knowledge. So how would I be of any help to be a "partner" if I don't really have anything to offer them?
