@Twana Rasoul Thanks for reaching out.

The reason why I want to pursue wholesaling RE because I feel like it’s a great entry level to get started with investing in real estate with little money down from what I been learning and along the way to start to create relationships that will have an impact in that specific line of work. I don’t know where to start or how to start that’s why I directly turned to enrollment at my local community college for a degree in real estate for summer term to learn the basics of Real Estate and maybe learn something I can adapt to the into the real world but I also feel like I did the wrong thing enrolling if people have don’t it without a higher education. I just don’t want to end up wasting my time looking for the wrong answer. Like I have mentioned I have a 4 month old daughter to look after so I need to hustle especially at the age of 20 I feel like I definitely can still squeeze in to make plenty of mistakes, risk, and most of all learn from it but what is most valuable is time and it’s running out , going for my AA in RE for 2 years is going to take up time but it could be an assets in the near future so If I’m going to college I’m going to have to make the best out of it because I refuse to be 30+ years flat broke no education and my daughter eating cup of noddles. It’s not like I am asking somebody to hold my hand through my career but to shine a light of guidance or advice me of what they went through to get to where they are at . People all over the media make it look very easy but I found nothing about real estate easy for me. It’s unique to say everyone has a story in Real Estate.

I’m 20 years old turning 21 on March ; HS graduate from class of 2016 in CA . I have a beautiful daughter who’s 4 months old And I just got laid off from my current job I was working at for 2 years as a construction worker, I’m currently taking my time studying and researching more about real estate. One thing that worries me is TIME . It’s now or never and I’m currently enrolling myself at a local community college for a degree in BUSR : Bussiness , Real Estate for my AA with a transfer to a 4 year. At times it worries me because I will be going as a full time student but I also need money now to take care of my daughter. I have lots of crazy thoughts going through my head for the reason that I really care for my future and it has me worried. I have been looking into wholesaling and I was wondering if it would be a great idea to maybe start there first then aim for a higher education in college. Can anyone who’s in the profession of real estate please give me some type of advice or a little back story of how they got through a rough situation like the one I’m in .

I’m a 21 years old currently living in Pomona, Ca and I would like to know more about people’s first experience in closing down a RE wholesale deal maybe throw in some advice on what to look out for .

I’ve come across a Real Estate broker who’s been in the markets for more then 18+ years out here in Southern, California and I’ve tried to bring up a conversation about wholesaling Real Estate and if knew anything about wholesaling RE and he told me he didn’t know anything about it and it was probably a scam that’s been going around then he tried so hard to tell me to get my real estate salesperson license so he can hire me and work as an agent ... I don’t know what think of all this I need some advice especially from someone who’s in California .
