Hello BP friends and professionals! I am literally a few days into the idea of seriously considering a career in real estate, specifically whole selling. A little about me first, I’m 25, I have a wife and 2 small children, and I currently work for a high end pool servicing company. Between child costs, debt, and just the cost of living, I can barely put food on the table. I HAVE to find a way to provide for my family, and real estate seems to be where the hard workers make big money. All that being said, I would love to get some feedback on a few things. Firstly, how do you overcome the stigma that comes with whole selling in a small town where most everyone knows you or knows a family member? And secondly, I would love an outside perspective on my long term plan as of right now (this will change drastically I’m sure). My plan as of right now is to start off with whole selling homes until I have the capital to buy a rental property. Once I have that property I will continue to whole sell until I can amass several rentals (between 5 and 10), at which point I would hope to have enough capital to consider becoming an investor and fund other projects with the hope of seeing a big return on my investments. This is all I have for the moment, but as I have said, I’m sure this will change as I learn more about this vast industry and grow as a person. Any thoughts or tips would be greatly appreciated! Thank you all for your time!
