I want to begin investing so I can get myself financial freedom but I desperately need support to get the initial capital to start fix & flipping houses.

Update stuff at turnovers and then at the end when you go to dispose of it and sell it... remodel it to reflect current market trends.. or do it when the market is down and people are desperate for work...

The white elephant- the rare solution to this, where you don't lose sleep and get a great return like you are seeking, is when you "luck" into a situation where you make a once in a life time purchase with a crazy low price, because a seller is desperate, stupid or both, and lets a property go at 1/3 of its value.

But if you can sell cars successfully you can sell real estate.if you have 5 to 20k liquid to pay for marketing you can start.if you can go 30 60 90 days or longer with out getting paid you can startif you have a decent vehicle and afford gas you can start.if you know how to do an escrow that helpsjust much more too it.the negative you get is that many get desperate or it simply attracts the less than ethical folks because no license required and in some markets were they prey on the not so bright owners they can really abuse them... its a fine line for sure.. not to mention its illegal the way most do it in most states.. just because they don't get caught does not make it legal.assigning contracts OK.. makreitng a house you don't own on craigslist usually requires a licesneBut in my mind if your sharp enough to be a good wholesaler you can also be a good broker or anything else you choose to do.

He does it by finding sellers who are ignorant of the true market value, easily manipulated, gullible and/or desperate to sell to get out of a bad life situation. 

My wife, our son, and our doc have been living out of our car, and with winter upon us we are desperate to find a place to stay.

Last night at the East Bay BP meetup in Oakland, I stood up in the middle of the busy room and cried out desperately for a Wholesaler!

We looked into it on two units we were desperate to rent.

(Wish there were more people taking chances like that rather than living lives of quiet desperation.)

I think you are my Haitian relative.
