Do you stop at the third?

If you just send them a mls listing there is nothing stopping them from going out and "stealing" the listing from you.I don't wholesale properties, but I do let everyone know that I will pay them a finders fee if they bring me a property lead that I close on.

If you have the cash nothing's stopping you from buying with all cash.Just pick a set of 'investment guidelines' as set forth within this site, follow them, and make sure you get a 'good' deal.Clean up your 'terrible credit' and things will get easier.Good luck.

Ive been learning about real about investing for about a year and a half now.I havnet been able to get started due to some family issues, and the fact that im not 18.But all thats worked out, and I'd like to start doing simultanious closings, then re-invest that money into savings until i can do a rehab without borrowing much money on it.So my question is, where else is good to look for properties that investors dont already have a hold of, considering its hard to do a simlultaious closing with yet another investor involved.So far i have:Newspaper classfiedsCraigslistLocal REI clubs and networkingDriving aroundCalling "we buy houses" or "houses for sale" signs.What else?

I think he means, don't let education stop you from getting started.

With flipping, you can never stop unless you're able to save a BIG pile of money, which most people can't.Good Luck,Mike

I am considering stopping paying extra money on my own home, and putting it toward real estate.

I know everyone on this forum is sick of hearing me say it (I don't plan on stopping by the way), however you need to learn to invest without using any of your own credit.

I also have a good deal of experience in loan closings, most of which have typically occured in the borrower(s) home.

Its all already out there but we are creating a "one stop shopping" way to tie into all the information.Its been a fun project so far but we really just began.
