@Ryan Howard welcome...doing some more research on your desired path should shed some light on the environment you're working in...I would caution noting that you do not have capital, but want to wholesale to raise capital...you're essentially admitting you are trying to broker real estate without a license...you will hear lots of opinions on this, but the bottom line is if you have no intent to close on a contract you enter into, you're engaging in unlicensed activity and subject to $1,000/day fines.I'm not saying don't wholesale...I am saying do your homework so you don't end up in a tight situation.Taking time to explore every option in RE investing is not a good approach...I can save you years of heartache and you'll be wealthy much faster by sticking to fundamentals...long-term buy and hold real estate is the only path you need to go down.

The biggest impediments to becoming wealthy are ourselves and our taxes.
