@Ned Carey hi Ned, Well as I mentioned above, my end goal is real estate investing.

Should I begin wholeselling with the goal to be a full time investor, or start by getting a real estate license?

Just completed a large remodel on my primary residence ($90k in) with the goal of refinancing to consolidate some personal debt and pull some additional cash for other real estate related projects, BUT ran into a road block with a lender.

If it's unrealistic to have this goal, I'd love some input to get a bare bones starter single family home.
