Be sure to check the local laws of the tax delinquents for your county you are wholesaling in because there are different time periods when the owner has a right to purchase the property back. 

It cost thousands of dollars to get started and maintain your license as well as the recurring continuing education you must put in every 2 years (at least in AZ).If you're looking to get into wholesaling or buy and holds, it probably won't benefit you as much as if you were a flipper.

Some of the costs involved are licensing fees, continuing education, errors & omission insurance, general business liability insurance, increased auto insurance, realtor board membership dues, sentrilock fees, css fees, mls fees. 

I was able to identify a property literally the last day of my identification period.

I have learned so much in a short period of time on this site and there seem to be quite a few other ROC investors here as well.

Luckily no real surprises other than the spot roof repair which was minor.It's definitely guesswork when acquiring deals quickly and on the fly, but can be at least well educated guesswork with some homework and the advice and knowledge of a good experienced contractor. 

From here networking and education are of highest priority!

It will cost you some money but you will also get a good education.

I hope I provide enough information to get educated responses.

I’m also new to BP and RE investment so doing a lot of educating myself on the concepts, jargon, knowledge base.
