Thanks for your replies Brett  and Omar, I've thought about trying to wholesale from Vegas but what seems challeneging is finding good members to be your eyes and ears.

Thank you for your reply, I am taking action out here, I have not gone knocking doors but I have mailed out letters and using other methods of bird dogging to try to generate leads. The reason for this topic is just mainly to find out what other markets are doing well. I plan relocating whether I'm doing well in Vegas or not.

Hey guys, I'm  a newbie still trying ro find leads to start wholesaling in Las Vegas, NV but I was thinking of renting out my current property I own and moving to another state to start wholesaling or other forms of investments like fix and flipping or buy and holding. Just wanted to hear everyones opinion in different parts of the country that may think their market is hot.

Hey guys so I'm about to start my first mailing list soon, I'm doing it the old fashion way by handwriting them. I just was looking at templates and all the letters are in print, I just have a problem writing in lower case letters, My current job has pretty much converted me to writing in all capital letters. 

I write faster that way but I wanted to seek advice on what would be the do's and don'ts for yellow letters.

Hello BP I'm from Las Vegas, NV serious about wanting to start up wholesaling but after doing some reading from what investors posted on here about their incidents with wholesalers not being the best ethics wise. I'm in search of advice on how to find an ethical mentor out in my local area. I was looking into my local REA but it didn't seem like there were any events set up any time in the near future.

Thank you both for your replies that clears up the doubt I had and Brett your post is very informative!

Hello everyone I'm new to BP, I found this site by trying to do some research on a 'Guru' I had just been watching a Youtube video when I saw Josh Altman giving a speech about attending a free webinar where it could change my life I did attend but I wasn't sold on his program. Okay so I know if it seems too good to be true it more than likely is. 

Though I do believe attending his webinar started to push me in the right direction, I had only planned on getting into rental properties after I found the right job to help me buy my second house and turn my first property into a rental property until I gain a significant value to sell it. Now I did wind up getting a program for 300 dollars from Cody Sperber. I know from reading most of the comments on here about gurus this will be frowned upon, but I decided I will give it a try for 30 days and return it if it's not beneficial.

One thing is bugging me the most is people saying all the time that you do not need money nor credit to get into wholesaling properties. Of course it is appealing to me because at the moment I don't have money to fund a deal nor is my credit as good as it should be to find another property more than likely. One thing I can't wrap my head around is, can you actually start wholesaling with out having an LLC, people to work with such as an attorney, accountant, real-estate agent etc? I mean there has to be some start up costs for setting all of this up I would assume and I would like to see if there is a realistic amount of money I need to put together to at least getting a business started. I have thought about asking relatives that might be okay with partnering up with me for funding. I'm also looking into trying to join my local REA, and trying to look for ways to find a mentor. So can you really start wholesaling with someone else's money like they say?
