I'm a newbie to this site and to wholesaling. 

It is amazing how far this site has come along from the beginning.

No doubt, it's a risk tho..Naturally I would much prefer something with less overhead that performs well, and I'm willing to buy my way into an established market, but then I'm starting from scratch, and frankly despite having some reasonable tools at my discretion I don't really know how to data mine the entire US.Now that the dust is starting to settle after years of being in the trenches with this duplex, it's clear to really make money with this you have to have a portfolio, as I read in an article from this site, 1 or 2 rentals ain't gonna do it.

@Sam LLoyd the loans I qualified for online with my credit score were around 4.5% some around 5% a couple around 4.3%.

I don't believe that many people on this site have been in that much of a financial bind (after all, no one would ever invest in real estate with negative cash flow), so it's going to take some creative traditional and non-traditional methods.

I am going for a site visit this week and am wondering what other questions or info would be important to have or find out.

I would look up your state's landlord-tenant law online. 

I love learning as much as I can so any books, online articles, etc that you recommend would be a big benefit to building my knowledge.

This is a fantastic site for networking and learning from other successful investors.
