I'd love to pick your brain about what the status of the wholesaling market is here.I have a background in construction and construction project management so I expect fix and flipping to be in my future once I get the ball rolling on the cash side.Osiris

Douglas,  try picking a topic of interest like, single family home rentals, wholesaling, becoming a real estate agent or buying real estate with no money down, and learn all you can on that one subject.

thx for all the info i plan to start doing the drive bys next weekend for now i am looking on GPSat the different areas that the homes are available I'm thinking massapequa because its not to far out from the city and i see a lot of big boats out there so i basically for now because since I'm not to familiar with real estate on long island I'm looking to see which houses have the biggest boats in the back because I'm thinking the more big boats the more rich people and possibly the demand will be higher when i do decide to flip the house... i guess ill pick my houses first and than look into the municipalities that they are located in because i plan to have a list of 5 or 6 homes that i WOULD BUY but just buy the one that is at the best bid because i don't want to do all the homework and get into a biding war over one house so i plan on having a range of options so i don't overpay or walk away empty handed

I spent 1 month there back in the early '80's on my Aust. passport & also picked up a little of Russian by necessity.One intriguing issue I found in coastal construction, particularly the various early 1920's Mansions, was the structural failure of the cement used.

I'll probably find you again to pick your brain.  

You'll pick things up pretty quickly.

I know this is an old post but I'm to pick someone's brain on vacation rentals in the Gatlingurg/Pigeon Forge area.
