And I would like to get in real estate because I want to work for myself and motivate my self to be more successful, to have free time to enjoy life, and to eventually open a coffee shop of my own!

That being said, I am trying to get straightforward, reputable & honest information when it comes to the facts about getting started in wholesaling and what it takes to be successful and am finding so much contradictory information that I don't know what to make of it. 

Even posting your success is a step in the right direction, gets you more eyeballs and that's always good.

Thanks Hattie,Jye,Financing for foreign investors is difficultYou will get the crappiest terms possibleI wouldn't do itJust my opinion off courseMuch success

I use Smart Move and have had great success with them 

I know I'm not super active posting but I do read the forums quite a bit and have listened to maybe about 1/3 the podcasts now, but I can first off say that having a place like this has really helped me a lot in guiding me to the right decisions that has made my first attempt a success!

None of our licensing training covers how rental income works in the mortgage math, and you can go a successful 20 year career without ever learning it.Go to your local REIA, ask who is doing loans for those folks.

. $405,750 is going to be a conventional loan, but $408,237 is going to be FHA/VA.Both statements will hold true about 99 times out of 100.I haven't read/heard of a lot of people being successful with this strategy (or completing an assumption at all, really), so if you are successful please post back with your experiences!

@Todd Snyder Welcome and much success to you and your wife!

I have 4 deals under my belt (with a varying range of success) and have learned lessons from each.I’ve spent the last few years building my family and career and would now like to devote my energy into something that can finance my lifestyle without having to continue working for The Man.
