I am willing to sacrifice some potential profit in order to get my feet wet and begin to build my team.

@Jimmy Dudley  its sort of depends on where you live and closing customs.for instance on the west coast there is no such thing as a wet closing.. or having all parties come to the closing table.. simply never happens.so when we sell something here I usually go in and sign ( if I want to I can also just have them e mail docs and I sign and they send a courier to my office.. )this is done 2 to 10 days before closing.. then the buyers come in the 3 days before usually because they have their 3 day right of recession ( owner occ mortgages)  then the loan package goes back to the lender.. then the title company has to record in the morning.. and has to send recording numbers to the lender then the lender funds.. then the next day once this is done title company will cut checks or wire proceeds.. for us 100% wires we never get checks.. its always kind of comical when I am sitting in my office in Oregon closing a deal in some east coast state and the closing attorney sends me an email with the time of the closing and wants to know if that time is good for me like I am really going to be there..

Second story or extension to the original house with a fully functional “wet bar.” 

Either way, I'm ready to get my feet wet as soon as I find the right deal.

So many things to consider and I am far from the level of real-estate education I’d like to be, but you need to get your feet wet somewhere. 

Unfortunately it looks like someone wet mopped the floor and the edges of the laminate appear to have swelled slightly.

Just joined the family here at biggerpockets,Looking to just get my feet wet and start out with baby steps.Maybe try my hands at wholesaling mobile homes.Whats your though on this way to jump in feet first?

I look forward to learning what I can from you all, as well as getting my feet wet in the real estate game.

First, I was 21 and uncomfortable spending a lot of money; secondly, it was after 9/11 and I was being sent all over the world ALOT so it didn’t make sense to have an empty house with a mortgage 6 months a year; finally, living next door to my tenants was a great way to get my feet wet as a LL.

Thank You            Troy   People do turn-key to get their feet wet and when they have more money than experience.
