Hello, I am just starting my venture into real estate. I am advertising that I want to buy properties in both North and South Carolina. I want to build capital so I'm looking for wholesale deals to invest in. I do have a few solid leads on property that I would like to place under contract, then assign to my end buyer. However, I have searched online for contracts and I’m not sure if the contracts I've downloaded are good/legitimate to purchase and close deals. I know that I must include (and/or assignee) on my contracts. So I’m not sure if I should use the generic real estate agent purchase and sale agreement from the internet because I don't see (and/or assignee) on it. Can anyone offer me any help in this regards? Also what other contracts will I need for wholesales?

Hello thank you both for the input. Yes I'm told Greenville is a really good place to currently be investing in. I'm am really excited to get started. However, I will definitely look into attending local real estate meetings. As this could also help with meeting a possible investing partner. I really appreciate you both for taking time to read and respond with advice.

Thank you,

Hello, All

My name is Kelvin McLaurin, I’m a design engineer in the Greenville, SC area. Like others I want to get into real estate as it has always been intriguing to me. Gaining financial independence while doing it is not a bad thing either. I have been reading in the BP forums, reading books, listening to podcasts, and YouTube posts. I am really eager to get started on my first property. However, I am a bit apprehensive to go at it on my own because I just feel I don’t know everything I should just yet. I am looking to start wholesaling and really understand that and how it works before venturing into other areas of real estate investing. Like I stated before I have been reading books, listening to podcasts, and watching YouTube posts. But I still feel I need the hands on experience, so do any of you have any advice on how I should get started on my first wholesale deal if Im doing it on my own?
