Since then I've been scouring for more info, youtube is a great resource, and it's how I found BiggerPockets.One major problem with all the info out there: it's mostly geared towards the United States, and Canada is a bit more challenging where financing and real estate regulations are concerned.

Offer to help scour for investors and provide the leads for free to this person in trade for listening to the conversations for anyone you find. 

I've been thinking about scouring CL to find furniture to stage my rentals.

But in the meantime I will be scouring the market for opportunities on single family fix and flips in Indianapolis or Noblesville.  

After months of scouring BP I decided on wholesaling as the strategy I would attempt, beginning in early 2015.

Can you do it all yourself scouring the internet for free?

That's when you get so many "newbies" scouring the MLS for deals, putting contracts on properties at prices that no "real" investor would buy them at, and in the end muddle up the market and expose themselves to legal issues.  

Scour the internet and become knowledgeable.

From a rookie's perspective, the problem with you "more advanced" guys telling us rookies NOT to buy programs and to spend hours here....etc... is that it can take YEARS to filter through the garbage and if you go and "learn" by following some garbage, you just may be out MORE than $15k if you really screw up.So instead of telling us NOT to waste money and to scour the pages here... how about directing us to a simple step by step learning process that is ultra conservative in nature that will allow us to make a deal, and maybe make some money, or better yet, if you really feel charitable, consider taking some of us on as apprentices and let is work for free for you while you let us see behind the curtain some real deals go down.It's frustrating to be told to jump into an ocean of knowledge and make a go of it, it is at the very best, AS RISKY as buying a course at any price mentioned so far.

The MAIN action comes from punching it thru a clog,,,then twisting it round and round and the edge of the tape 'snaps' around and scours the walls etc.
