Don’t let this scare you off as in many areas L/Os are used regularly.

To me it is family, health, happiness, and enjoying what one does.

Here's what I tell my students both bird dogs and wholesalers alike:Bird dogging is cool if you want to learn your market, get you feet wet, and basically are scared $hitless at the thought of any risk....Bird dogging is also great because it makes for the perfect transition into wholesaling because you can take your relationships and move them from bird dog relationships to wholesaling relationships....Having said all that....Wholesaling is virtually the exact same thing, except you make A TON more money on every deal.

Your doctor takes advantage of your need for good health, the grocer your hunger, a mechanic your broken car, the farmer supplies the grocer, the handyman (me) fixes the house you can't, won't do your self.

The taxes, ins, and maintenance on the building alone scare me.

I am a forum fanatic and have joined forums based on my passions because I simply love to talk about them with other people that share the same passion (basketball, health, cars).

They get free health care.

just scared if i find someone that has a great deal and i cant provide a seller that i ..a: wont find a buyer or b: loose a lot of moneyi will take the plunge soon i just dont know where i should start....marketing, finding a REA , or mortgage broker

But hopefully, there will be some some good to come out of the other infrastructure, health care, education initiatives.

(they wanna close may 26.) anyway, went to the realtor today and they want $1,000 by 5 pm to submit with the contract. the investor im using to finance the deal is a private investor i havent worked with before, so, im HOPING they come to the closing as planned. this deal was put together real fast because i didnt expect my low offer to be accepted, just threw something out there. the investor wants to loan me money and carry a security deed until i pay them off. im SCARED to put the 1,000 down without having worked with this guy before. i thought about telling the realtor that i cant submit the money until tuesday (gives me more time to talk with investor and make sure we are clear), but the realtor said the bank may throw out the contract. what should i do????
