Now being a new eager investor, I may have a wide eye approach but I do like to aim high.

Network - Both through this site in the forums but also in person.

The other huge part is having access to notes and the best way to get access is through networking.

start with local real estate meetings in your area and get tips and infor from networking events, that might work my friend 

Maybe you will hold a $30,000 note and sell it on a note network after 6 months of seasoning (for around $25k).

I'm new to the investment scene and wanted to network with others who have the same interests.

Im starting a meetup, opening an office and studio, and will be buying multifamily and development projects locally and in surrounding areas and Im looking to network with all kinds of people that are on similar paths. 

He should make a bigger pockets account and start networking. 

Hello Tod, I think I can help you with my network and contacts in Detroit.

to be an actual fix and flip investor / business  its quite capital intensive.. and just a down payment is just a drop in the bucket of the capital required.your best bet is to put a little private network together if you really want to do this.or get your license and specialize in finding these types of properties for fix and flippers.. make a commish selling it for them.. and then the list back.. that's what agents in our market here do and they will knock down 250 to 500k a year no sweat in commish with no risks of borrowing money or a flip that did not work.
