I'm wondering how I go from there to wholesaling in quick succession without destroying myself financially.

Went out last Sunday in North Dakota driving for dollars my first step towards real estate investing looking at wholesaling looking for a good skip Trace app, or maybe just yellow cards any advice would be appreciated...

Congrats and I wish you tons of success. 

I’ve been reading bp for over a year now and always enjoyed reading success stories.

I would LOVE to hear more about your success on not getting a buyer agent at all!

For those that have been successful with direct mail, what do you usually pay for your lists? 

I know of a couple not sure if they are hiring or would be a good fit for you but they seem to be successful. 46:10 group, or Templeton group in AZ may be a couple to check out.

I've just started the online course through Real Estate Express and plan on completing it before I make the trip home.I do have some money saved up to keep me afloat for a few months while I get into the business but I'm just looking for any advice or tips towards being a successful agent and making a salary as soon as possible once I start.
