I worked with some investors and, in fact, most of them started out by taking online courses (which could often be costly).

You can apply for an EIN online at no cost.

But after 4 years of working together, I know he's going to be all-in to make this work, especially if he is working to earn a bigger cut than just salary or even salary+bonus.

Commonly used are online resources like zillow, trulia and my personal favorite ******************* (one word) websites.

Upon looking at the online deed records, I discovered she only bought this place 2 months ago and is already selling. 4.

I am also with Jon when it comes to mentors, if you are earning so much money wholesaling when will you have time to teach thousands of students.

Also if anyone knows of some in Houston Texas specifically that would be amazing.I'm so glad I found bigger pockets because you guys are some of the most encouraging , helpful and thoughtful people I've talk to in online community forums.

Although I am no longer a licensed agent in Texas, this is the time frame that it took me to go from un-licensed to licensed:Jan 3rd - Ordered course online from agentcampus.comJan 20th - Found broker to sponsor / hang licenseJan 30th - Submitted 150 completed course work to TRECMarch 1st - TREC responds needing finger printing & bg checkApril 15th - TREC BG check / Finger prints receivedApril 15th - Pay HAR/TAR/NAR/CSS/Broker duesApril 20th - License "active"May 1st - 1st contract writtenSo it takes roughly 5 months from start to finish.

I've had no success emailing Craigslist FSBO & FRBO and some other online FSBO websites.I am thinking of posting newspaper ads, using realtors or doing business in other geographic areas.

Will reading real estate investing books help me better than taking an online class or getting a mentor?
