@Quinten Jones - All great advice so far. Maybe you should also consider getting started as a wholesaler to build up some cash. A lot of folks start that way and learn the business. I bought from a wholesaler once and all he asked for was a reduced wholesale fee and that he be allowed to shadow me during the process from beginning to end. It was no skin off my nose to have him around and he gave me a great deal. You have to give to get in this business and that doesn't always mean money. Go to the REIA events in your area and start talking with people. Watch out for the wannabe gurus that will want you to pay $10K for their mentoring etc., most of those guys aren't experienced themselves. Talk to a lot of people and be smart about it....GOOD LUCK!

Thanks Aaron!  OH MAN!!  I'm glad nobody told me it was a heavy lift before I said I wanted it and found all the financing to make it possible.  LOL!  I probably would have thought I couldn't do it and that I was too inexperienced.  I guess ignorance is a good thing in some moments.

Try the County GIS system, rather than the courthouse computers.

It links up with the tax assessor/commissioner information, and can get you a lot of info, including recent sales.

market is too hot, nobody finds the need to owner finance when they can list/sell/cash out in a week

Welcome to BP! 

Best thing to do is setup an llc. There are a lot of ways to structure a deal and an llc will really help.

Also talk to a title company. A lot of wholesalers use Southeast Professional Title.

@Ryan Kopczyk there can really help with questions.

 Welcome to BP

JC and I have been doing this for years and years.

Accepting assignment fee's in Orlando is legal, I think they need to be paid to an LLC though if you are not a licensed Realtor.
