Thanks for the reply guys,Ryan I plan to be at the WCRT meeting tonight!!!

If Josh is organizing something next week, I'll just wait until then, since I'm already (likely) meeting up with Wheatie tonight.

Wow, I just found this site tonight and am greatly inspired.

I met with the investors at the property on Saturday, and we are meeting again tonight to sign the Assignment of Contract.

I am back on the streets again tonight.

And that's it, for tonight.

When I get off of work later tonight, I'll do some more reading (shouldn't be posting right now).drweltman, I'll have to research wraps, as I have no idea what they truly are, but I'm growing increasingly pessimistic as to convincing my parents to do anything more than stick a sign in the yard and wait.Greg

well, so far my biggest problem is finding property to wholesale or even worse finding the owners of the property. although I have been spending alot of time driving around and writing down addresses. take tonight for example, I left work and drove around the area and I found 4 houses. 2 of them looked abandoned, 1 was a FSBO and 1 turned out to be listed by an agent although it looked run down it was a commercial/office/residential building aka a home turned into an electrical contractors office. so back to the two abandoned places.

BTW, I've also arranged a mini meeting with my buddy who is in RE for tonight.

*Too small of a target market in my area*Not enough people facing foreclosure have 30% equity or more*People will think it's a scam (I was just on the HUD website tonight where they describe a similar arrangement as a scam)*Takes too long to flip the property*Property needs more work than I thought*I can't handle the carrying costs*I can't find anyone to rent it*I can't find financing/get lender to let me assume mortgageThose are just off the top of my head.
