People might think you have something to hide.

People who think they are going to spend a few hours per week and make a $1000 is not reality.

But there a billion people out there that would disagree with me.4.  

Most people are just happy if their hand doesn't break through the sheet.

This also may be a good way to get an in working for someone with more experience since being a new wholesaler who doesn't even know where to start makes it very hard to start.Also, don't start telling people you are a wholesaler before you have marketing going out, a small buyer's list, and at least one property locked up because everyone wants to be a wholesaler, but it's not actionable until you are in the game.

Plenty of people can do that now. 

Building relationships with wholesalers and staying active in local REI groups has also helped investors I know find opportunities that still pencil out.On the refi side, DSCR loans have been a solid option, especially for staying cash flow positive.

I'm looking to meet like-minded investors and make new partners with people serious about investing in the New York City area.

Hey @Jared Lyon, there are lots of people out there coaching investors that are doing lots of good work.

The gist of it is that when you dispose of your entire interest in a passive activity in a fully taxable (as opposed to a tax-deferred) transaction to a non-related party, i.e., selling a non-grouped rental property in a taxable sale to a non-related party, both current and suspended passive activity losses generated by that activity can be deducted.
