I'm new to the Real Estate Investing community/business and would like to get a couple tips on wholesaling locally here on Oahu.

Attend local meet ups, get on wholesalers lists, tell everyone what you're looking for. 

@Leana Ruggles You mention MN in general in a couple of your posts above.

If you want to buy, give a couple Sears Outlets a call, they normally have a couple sets around and since they likely sit for a decent amount of time the store might be motivated to drop the price a bit to move it.

Edit: I just want to say, after thinking about this for a couple minutes, maybe I need to continue to do research if people are telling me my numbers are way off.

We have purchased a few properties over the last couple years paying cash but now trying to have a more concise plan moving forward since finding BP.

Joshua Tree has been pretty tough for the last couple years @Sri S.

I had dipped my toe in a couple of fix and flips before the market crashed in 08. 

When you only have a couple rentals and they are leveraged (have mortgages), the rental income is relative small AND more importantly it can be inconsistent.

It depends on where you are on the investing phase, everyone will be in a different part and have differing opinions.I was in the growth phase a couple years so I looked to take on more debt to build my portfolio.I accumulated a lot of wealth after all the appreciation over the past 5 years.I am now looking to decrease my debt.Once the debt is paid down, I will be able to get an increase in monthly cash-flow that would have went to interest / principal paydown.Remember the goal is a comfortable living situation and not to acquire more rentals(or another job).
