Appreciation I have experienced over almost 40 years in three states. 

Does anyone have a suggestion for a good CPA experienced in REI in Westchester, Putnam, or Dutchess county in NY?

The meetup is a great place to pick the brains of experienced folks like Anson.

There's something to be said about experience, and you may lose a deal or to working with a rookie that could have been save by an experienced agent.To Your Success...

If you presented yourself as experienced investors to the attorney odds are he didn't think he would have to tell you because this has to happen on literally every single real estate transaction. 

Im an experienced investor and rehabber focused in Marion county WV.

I'd also consider co-wholesaling with someone experienced to pick their brain a bit and expedite your learning curve.

Now I understand that many people struggle at this part because they are scared to fail or they feel the time isn't right and honestly I felt that within that time frame of a year but I have failed many times in my life and I wholeheartedly believe the best way to learn is by experiencing it hands on. 

Welcome Robert.My suggestion would be to partner with a more experienced investor to gain experience and contacts, before trying it by yourself.

So encouraging to hear from experienced investors like yourself.
