Thanks @Brett Sorenson, any advise on finding deals? I have an agent that i am working with for access to the MLS website, as well as the Auction.com website. I have also heard the recommendation of just finding your target area and driving around searching for distressed properties that may not be on the market yet to potentially make deals on. Anything other tricks would be greatly appreciated.

Hey @Joe Schaak, thank you for the feedback! Persistence is a necessity at this point for me, and failure is not an option - I understand that there will be failures along the way but nothing that i cant or wont overcome.

Alright Gang, here I am diving in head first to the real estate game. I am starting an LLC in January and hoping to hit the ground running that month. I feel like I have adequately prepared myself doing research, reading blogs and I will be attending a REI meet up on the 10th hoping to network with people familiar with the realm of real estate investing and specifically flipping. So at this point, if there is anyone out there that has experience in the area, can give me a few pointers, things you wish you knew of had in your back pocket when you started, or anything for that matter, that would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers,

TC
