Hopefully, he has the courage to continue on his REI education journey, and keep coming back to this awesome community where others will actually give him advice. sometimes the truth is what is needed.. wholesaling is a dying niche states are outlawing it as we speak.

I am wrapping up my licensing education with the intent of being able to buy and wholesale solo part-time, while keeping my full time job.How would I go about finding a brokerage that would sponsor me as a sales agent while allowing me to have this flexibility?

These folks dont understand what SUBTO is aside from an "education" or "mentorship".

Been educating myself for a while now and understand the basics of the process.

As you approach your next purchase, start talking to lenders about pre-approval, build investment criteria, and continue educating yourself on market trends.Good luck!

I have taken parts of the Michael Blank program and found it very educational.

Preemptively talking through issues that may arise (lowering rent, no payment for the month, big maintenance item, accounting error on your end) helps build that.Bring options to the table and educate the owner.

EDUCATE YOURSELF - yes, it will take time, but will lead to a selection that better meets your expectations & avoids potentially costly surprises!

@Scott Trench Creating a website focused on passive investor education that is sponsored by deal sponsors is removing the independence of the site, IMO.

Welcome @Rebecca Morris,These are the 10 first steps I would recommend to get started in REI (real estate investing):1) Educate Yourself: Read books, take online courses, and attend seminars about real estate basics, market trends, and investment strategies.2) Set Clear Goals: Define what you want to achieve in real estate—whether it’s buying a home, investing in rental properties, or flipping houses.3) Choose Your Niche: Decide if you want to focus on residential, commercial, or industrial real estate, or perhaps a mix of these.4) Research the Market: Analyze your local real estate market.
