Sam and I are thinking about doing a weekend workshop in Phoenix...

The first seminar was intriguing but the workshop was too expensive.  

I've never attended a seminar, workshop or bought a course over a few hundred bucks and I'm making a huge income. once you have the basics down, you need to learn a little on negotiation/acquisition, test lists, meet buyers and learn how to scale your business and who and what makes a team so you're not a slave to your business. let them do it for you and you make the money. but REI Vault is basically a "business in a box" and that box is podio that comes already set up for a real estate investor, which is a big plus!

What I've shared is just my opinion based on my rudimentary understanding of how financing works. Hopefully

I still plan on going to the free workshop but I also thought it would be a good start to throw a question out on this forum.From a young and inexperienced investor to all you experienced investors, what is a great source for information?

I went to Jon and Stephanie ‘s weekend work shop in Little Rock Arkansas it was amazing.

If you plan to own in Minneapolis check out the rental property owner's workshop (http://www.minneapolismn.gov/inspections/rental/rpow) provided by the city.

You'll have to attend a first-time buyer's workshop and meet the credit and income limits.Last I heard, it was up to $11,000 in down payment & closing cost assistance.  

I have recently started researching and attending forums and workshops in regards to wholesale real estate for the last 4 months.

I recommend only accepting people who are employed in some capacity, because otherwise they're just hanging around the house all day, and the old saying, "Idle hands are the Devil's workshop" exists for a reason.
