I won the bid on a Florida property at an online auction. 

Both times I would not have been able to afford to invest in the opportunity myslef, so partners were the only way I could get into the game.

However, working with a rockstar LO that understands investors and who truly cares to help you make the most money possible, now that's a game changer.Hope that helps, best of luck!

I truly want to dive into wholesaling and would love to have a mentor who has a great foot in the game that I can learn from.

Real estate closings are a numbers game and the more offers you submit, the better, usually.If you have not realized it yet that there is very many softwares that can help you.
