Texas, I was amazed at the houses you can get for the prices that they have them at. It is a good state to live IMO.

I'm sure they do things different in Canada, but I've been trying to weigh the bennies of getting a R/E License and as an investor the only thing is getting access to the MLS, which as explained before a good realtor friend can keep you in the loop on this.

Welcome, Lablanca
This is a good place to start, just an abundance of information.

On seller financing not necessary to have good credit. Remember, the seller is acting as the bank also like Jon said, but they can base their judgement on whether to give you the financing based on your credit. That is their choice.

Sean Flanagan runs this show. Me and a partner were gonna do them. The franchising fee I believe was $1200 and comcast was gonna run about 80 commercials in a two week period on about 4 channels of our choice for about $800-something. We would have an area of western washington which was huge.

We were talked out of it by a realtor friend that thought the marketing dollars would be better used on and Lead Generating Website and using SEO

He's on facebook also if you wanna find out what he's up too.

Congrats. Luis for wanting to get in the game early. I would say to know what a deal is is to know your market (most will tell you that is utmost important). See about finding a realtor and even better one that invests themselves and they will be good to help u track the market and even learn from.

The lower you can get from the median price range for your area probably the better the deal. Yes, credit cards, horrible idea. Birddogging, relatively easy way to make money for you and help you learn the market. A good real estate lawyer will be one that does at least half of the practice in real estate and better yet invest themselves (also, make great open minded partners because they are busy)

Sounds to me like Lease Options, but if he wholesaling using options that sounds like a clean way to get in and get out with fewer complications.

Check out "Joel Block" straight up no BS syndication expert I seen in florida this year. Great guy.. I have a local guy "Paul Galasso" in Seattle that gave an impressive on day workshop on raising private funds and went "deep" into staying in compliance with SEC Rules... He provides booklets full of paperwork and all. This is not an easy world to tackle. its definitely a big boy world, but once u get in it can be a bottomless pit of opportunity.

!. Eprassal (about right on target)
2. Cyberhomes (good most of the time)
3. Zillow (out there flapping)
