Be advised, a number of banks have closed or severely reduced their HELOC programs.  

I am a newbie investor in Austin, Texas through a coaching program.

And to expand on this further there are "Downpayment Assistance Programs" that will allow you to bring even $0 to closing.

Hey Albertinny, that's my site. i own and run a marketing agency. so i had some help ;-). i've been doing PPC since 2007. i've been doing lead generation for real estate since 2017. i would say roughly 5000 hours and a couple million dollar in ad spend (luckily paid for by clients). however you can start a class or training program and be good enough to get ads up in a matter of hours. you could test out these skills for only a couple hundred bucks. from there it's just Niche, effort and commitment.

Speak with a lender regarding different loan programs that can fit your financial situation. i.e. stated income loans.3.

Mint and Wave are also good programs for tracking personal and business finances when you're starting out.

What are your experience like and thoughts about the program?

That's all wholesaling is as it's taught in these programs, it's brokering real estate except instead of being up front & telling the distressed seller that you'll sell their property for X amount & take X amount as your commission / fee you are taught to lie to the seller & pretend you are going to buy the property while you secretly attempt to "assign" your contract.It doesn't work.
