Doesn't have to be anything expensive or fancy. 

Not all things super shiny are Gold - it's not anything new - just a new fancy approach. 

I found in the past that those folks who give themselves the title of "wholesaler" aren't really truly investors (wholesaler) many have take a seminar in a motel on the weekends and fancy themselves as experts in the real estate business ------- a newbie with a title does not make one successful in this business.In fact - they have very little knowledge of basic creative financing - contract engineering - seller financing mortgage clauses - power prospecting - dealing with industry agents - title companies - auction - tax sales or how to stay legal when deal with foreclosures mortgagors.Be careful - there are some tricky folks out there who will say anything to peek into your wallet.Charles

If you're removing a large number of walls you start getting into shear loads calculations and other fancy engineering math, in which case you should call in the pros (and will likely want to pull permits and provide the city with architectural drawings at that point anyway), but one small wall section is pretty easy.

. :)What I don't understand quite well is, my day job is 100% commission and banks don't fancy that much, after purchasing this "HGTV investor package" my credit took a big hit.

@Sean WalcottSyndication is just a fancy term to represent the pooling of money together to make some type of investment.The investment will depend on the prospectus and the investment strategy of the sponsor.A syndication can invest in Stocks, Pre-IPO companies, crypto or real estate.Since you are on a real estate site, I assume a real estate syndication.A real estate syndication can be very broad as there are many strategies - SFH, Multi, Land, Commercial, Storage, etc.Speak to your CPA how an investment in a syndication will impact your taxes.Normally, you will be a limited partner / non-managing member in a syndication which limits your capability of utilizing losses to offset your W-2 income since you won't have active participation.

We were ready to start doing normal house deals and the game plan we came up with (with the help of a friend/mentor) is basically the game plan Lifestyles Unlimited teaches you.Free podcast here: http://www.lifestylesunlimited.com/category/radio_...So you won't know how to do all the fancy stuff and breath of stuff you will know how to do if you do invest in something like Legacy Education, but I think this program will get you to have skin in the game in a really do-able fashion.

"Wholesaling" is just a fancy word used in the investor community, it changes nothing between an agent and buyers/sellers.

Nothing to fancy or cringey just something to make you push through any complication.
