Yet private money for the inexperienced rehabber seems to be the most elusive ingredient. 

Adam, While I'm young and inexperienced, I've grown up around Des Moines over the last 8 years and I believe there will be an enormous opportunity for income and growth in that city.

I'd love to meet all of you inexperienced or experienced and hear your experiences!

If you go about demanding to see the entire place before even writing an offer then your going to come off as a inexperienced/uneducated/non-serious buyer Brokers and sellers will either not want to deal with you and ignore you or try to take advantage of you.

They may not like losing money in a bad investment, but what they really want to avoid is losing their money to thieves.This leaves the honest-but-inexperienced person in a relatively good position.

Most brokers do not encourage New agents to do what's out here on Bigger Pockets yet because you are inexperienced and closing some of these wholesale, non MLS deals can get tricky.  

One day, there was a spark of inspiration and interests in the real estate industry when I read Rich Dad Poor Dad on how an inexperienced man flipped his life from rags to riches by flipping foreclosed houses.

You can easily get most of the top books for $15 in that first month.I now have a morning routine of listening to an hour podcast from BP or audio book over my morning tea.

I'm broke, I'm inexperienced and I will succeed!

This is a little rant for all you new or inexperienced investors.
