Wholesaling could be a good way to get your feet wet, but you also have to be careful there and make sure you have an out and you aren't stuck actually closing on the property if you don't have the funds.Another option would be to partner with another investor to learn the ropes.

Most people that aren't familiar with your situation or the area aren't going to know if it is a good deal or not.

0% APR for 12-18 month credit cards aren't hard to find.

Usually wholesalers target certain areas and would try and avoid an area they aren't familiar with or think is too bad.

If you aren't getting the returns you are accustomed to then you may need to adapt and find other sources or locations of deals.

It's workable, for sure, but it's an extremely tenant-friendly state so the laws aren't in your favor.

I imagine realtors have plenty of work so they aren't interested in doing extra legwork for a potential deal. 

If the traditional banks aren't working out, you could consider one of the hard money lenders that also does rental financing such as Finance of America Commercial or Lending One.

Wholesaling is not easy, and you aren't going to get rich or make money very quickly.

Nobody should look at them as any form of training or education as a lot of things/steps are left out of the shows.Mostly, the critical tasks needed to be successful in flipping aren’t shown:- how to find properties- how to determine ARV- how to determine the budget NEEDED to rehab the house to meet that ARV- carrying and closing costs- TIME!!!!!
