It's slow out there for a lot of trades in SA right now and I'm not one to gatekeep.

@Michael Oliver I started investing in Saint Louis a few years ago with the same excitement tempered by fear of the unknown. 

When I first got started in real estate in 2002 I did 33 leases in one month...good money! 

I am a beginner investor, I started off house hacking but due to my occupation I had to move and now that is being used as a long term rental.

I have seen folks go on to do great things with paid training.as well as seen many and its probably the majority do nothing with it.. and end up selling their books and tapes on E bay for 50 bucks.thats where i would start E bay look to buy every guru's books and tapes you can find listen/read all the material and see if there is anything you learn from that.   

You should carefully review the terms of the loan, before you agree on proceeding with the loan process. ...Here is the TERMS AND CONDITION review and get back to me immediately.{1} The applicant will start the repayment of loan at the end of every month starting from 6 months after loan has been transferred, the loan is charged at 3% interest rate.{2} Failure to pay back the loan at this expected date/period, legal actions will be taken against the applicant by our attorney immediately. {3} Applicant who is unable to meet with the repayment will be given 2 weeks more as a grace period before legal actions will be taken. {4} Note: As soon as you in agreement with the terms and condition below your loan will be approved by the governmental body so as the loan papers can be processed. {5} Note: The borrower will be responsible for the loan processing/documentation fee and this is the only fee expected to pay for this transaction to have your loan transferred to you as soon as possible, NOTE: This payment will not be deducted or added to the loan IT IS PAID UPFRONT $1075.00. * Your inability to pay or agree to the payment of the upfront fee, means you are incompetent of repaying the loan.

My goal is to get out of my 9-5 which is maybe why I'm wanting to start cash flowing asap lol. again thanks so much for the insight.

I am new to real estate investing and would like to get started with wholesaling.

Finally, getting started on my own business.

Have already started #2!!
