No money and bad credit pretty much eliminates everything on your list except wholesaling. I don't really consider that investing. Its a job. Its not a bad place to start, but its a lot tougher than the gurus make it out to be. Another alternative is to look for real estate related work such as working for a property manager or in a real estate agency office.

In your position, I'd do three things.

1) Get a book aimed at first time home buyers. This will explain the process and the procedures used in buying real estate. It will give you a background on how to get a property under contract and what these contracts are.

2) Work on the money and credit piece. If possible, fix whatever if ruining your credit. At the very least, so doing things to damage it. Like paying bills late and maxing out your cards. Spend less than you make, regardless of how much or little you make. Dave Ramsey's "Total Money Makeover" is a good place to start.

3) Think about your goals for real estate. Do you want income right now? To accumulate assets for retirement? Something else?

Thanks! i never even thought about buying a first time homebuyers book.And i will buy Dave Ramsey's book. Even though i dont have anymore debt my credit is still a mess in my opinon. What i want out of real estate is longterm assets as well as income now. and i willing to do whatever it takes to get there. i see wholesaling as my ticket to get my dream started and funded not necessarily to strike it rich quick. i understand that real estate investing isnt a hobby but a business. anywho, Thanks so much for responing to my post Mr. jon holdman
