Has anyone run into this and were they able to overcome the rule? 

I do agree with everything you said and it definitely takes tenacity and patience to overcome the initial inertia and gain some traction as an investor. 

@Jay HelmsHi Jay,I had social anxiety for years, but have overcome it.

There are a lot of creative ways to overcome challenging issues when selling a property.   

In my mind I know that this is just a challenge to over come but it still has me ready to toss in the towel.I've talked to a couple wholesalers here in Rochester, NY.

They're not even inside yet, but those two parts will influence the rest of their tour.Can a nice house, at a great price in an awesome neighborhood overcome an ugly exterior? 

Being in this stage is exciting but also somewhat nerve wrecking.I would love to know if there was something that delayed you doing your first deal or getting started and if there was anything that you did to overcome that!

A few Months ago I was looking into actually purchasing this property and I didn’t have the funds to cover the purchase of the property. I began to look into a hard money sources and the Hardmoney lender Seemed to leg...

Great on you for thinking about this so young.In the right situation, you could do well in a no money down scenario, but typically to invest without any of your own dollars involved, you're going to borrow from a private lender at a higher rate than normal, and they would only lend to you with a high income / collateral so you already have to have money or high net worth.I"m guessing like most students, you don't have a high paying job or a large amount of cash saved so that would be your first challenge to overcome in your journey.

But we have learned that the only winning strategy to overcoming fear and comfort is to learn and improve by taking action every day.
