The tax deed auctions here are very competitive, no low hanging fruit.

If they pause for a few minutes and you hear them furiously googling on their keyboard, go ahead and just hang up and move onto the next one.

Just hang tight :)I was fed up with myself always just "wanting" this dream, so I sat myself down towards the end of last year, and I downloaded a goals journal online, printed it, and began writing.

I know some of those guys and this post is not for you.This post IS for all those newbie wholesalers who just can't seem to understand why what you do has a bad reputation and why so many people laugh at you, hang up on you, curse you out or otherwise absolutely will not deal with you.  

I guess my hang up is this.

Replacing a pay check with rental income could take 15-20 years of hard work and long hours so don't hang your hat on that.Your first step is to get your personal finances in order.

@Max Brutus come tonight and hang out.

Hang in there.

People there will be networking, hanging out and talking real estate investing.Hope this helps.

One good thing about setting it up before hang however is that there are no Dower rights.
