I've been buying at Foreclosure auction  in Indiana (judicial state) with about 8 properties under my belt over the last couple years.  

I hope to get my first BRRRR under my belt this year.

It sounds like you are on your way to getting your first deal under your belt. 

I am all for jumping in and getting the deal under your belt but if you don't have the money its best just to wait until you do. 

In my opionion this is way to rich for a first deal. look for something under 100k purchase that needs mabey 15k- 25k rehab. your offer plus estimated rehab should be 70% or less then ARV. get something like this under your belt and then look at the mcmansion houses. good luck!

If they told me I had to leave then I'd have gotten into my car, fastened my seat belt, and pulled off like grandma leaving the grocery store; nice & slow!

Once i have some experience under my belt id love to link up.

I had one group of tenants who literally stated that exhaling into their stupid bounty blower (look it up) should make it undetectable... again, they were stupid, they got told all of the above and I explained to them that the duration of their lease was their legal and financial responsibility even AFTER eviction and that I would garnish their wages to recoup that IF NEEDED or they could walk their cheech and chong butts out to the sidewalk like they were told to do the day we signed the lease agreement.

Probably the best advice is to not do virtual wholesaling until you get close a few local deals under your belt.

You are new, dont have a ton of experience, its a scary thing to jump into even if you have some RE experience under your belt.
