The nationwide, err worldwide crash in 08, will not likely happen anytime soon.

One of my close friends is a pretty big player in your forums/is a moderator and he turned me on to you guys a few years ago and you've always been a real great source of info for my fiance and me.

I love real estate despite the difficult times in the world-wide crash.  

Just to clarify why I'm looking to flip instead of just buy and hold myself: I'm in a situation where there is very little banks will give me for leveraging rental homes despite having a good amount of assets and excellent credit because I haven't had any income in 4 years (long story short: I went back to school after my previous career as a professional poker player ended due to the online poker shutdown.

Even if you don't want to get your license, I think you'd get a lot out of the course when it comes to how a typical transaction works, who the major players are, what a contract looks like, etc.I think you're missing some very basic background information about how the purchase and sale of properties work, and that could get in the way of actually making offers.

I'm a positive person too are using Kent Clothiers  RE world wide reww and propstream lead sources and did the $550 (??)

Go to local REIA meetings and find out who the players are in your market.

Definitely come attend the SLREIA or UVREIA meetings and get to know the local players in your market.

Although, it really isn't the fault of little people who can't handle financial pressure.. it's the fault of major players gaming the system for their own profit.

I am quickly learning that money is the key player here; s/he who controls most of the money has the upper hand at all times.
