I'm looking forward to networking with all of you, and am always looking for new buyers (including wholesale), as well as finding new leads, sources for private money etc.

I have some partners in your area who wholesale distressed properties.

I'm a newbie ,just starting out , I'm considering the wholesale strategy just to get my feet wet , i understand the concept very well ,but i have some questions regarding NY. 1)i would like to know if you can assign contract in NY (Not for REO)?

I am new to the real estate investing world and I am looking to learn much more before I will feel comfortable venturing out on my own trying to wholesale properties.

I'm looking to get more aggressive on that angle as well.My goal is that by the time my oldest son graduates high school (he's a sophmore this year) - I will have enough passive income to make this a full time career.I would like to network with wholesalers, bird-dogs and other agents in the area.I'm not a member but I've attended several of the Houston area REI club meetings/mixers.I'm very open to any and all advice and/or educational opportunities to move me along.

Do i need to work with a wholesaler specializing in burnt out deals?

I am a wholesaler who likes to connect other wholesalers with each other.

The only people buying property at a fixed up cost for $45k that rents for $900 are the actual wholesale investors, this is not a price that an investor could expect to pay from a wholesaler.

I'm not a wholesaler, I'm a potential buyer.

In reviewing how to wholesale a Lease Option, how do you get the Seller to not require an option fee from you?
