He's single no children and board with all his social places and clubs closed so I figured, good for him, something to.

You can do this deal with no money but you need one more component.

FHA has a rehab component to it.

He does not work, has social security.

They also like to troll on social media to see what people do for work so I don't accept friend requests from strangers.

That brings me to wholesales, I understand the key components of the game, is wholesaling something I should look into more in regard to a source of income right now?

The main components are cash flow, mortgage reduction and appreciation over [your expected holding period].

Some things to consider when selling property and doing a seller finance and considering the tax aspects.If your gain is not that much - you may prefer just receiving the full payment in the year of sale and not doing a seller financed deal.If the gain is a lot - you may prefer to spread the gain over several years.You also have an interest component that you can charge the buyer which you may find beneficial.Good luck on the sale!

This can be your sphere, open houses, door knocking, social media, an organization etc - pick something that works for your personality and you enjoy and stick with it.You can also buy leads from relator or zillow, but i would not recommend that, as you are creating a dependency - learn how to hunt on your own!
