But consistency and persistence are very important.

Once people try it they will find out just how hard and unforgiving it can really be but for those that endure, are persistent, and lucky, believe me we are all lucky and have to be in order to go on in this business but you do your business based on know how, and real knowledge, capacity, abilities and the right set for the most part.

It absolutely works, but it takes a lot of patience, persistence, and commitment to the goal.

The key is to stay consistent and persistent.

However the range of "normal " is probably 2 months to a year.One of my beliefs is if you do what successful people do often enough and persistently enough you to will be successful.

Persistence is the key to real estate.

I've been at it for a few months now and I have to keep telling myself "Be Persistent and Consistent!

Tough it out and be persistent. 

If you're persistent enough you'll find the right people.

@Andy welcome to BP you are going down the correct path my friend what I would suggest is that you go to at least 1 meetup a week and befriend an investor you can find the real deal makers in the back with grey hair start up a simple conversation and explain to them your goals and what you want to do help make them more successful and in turn you unlock the door to FREE Knowledge just keep at and be persistent man you will someone because older investors always like helping younger ones.
