I want to do comps for you and walk the properties with you and tell you what I think it is worth"Same with contractor.Now you have a solid team.Step 5Start  blog.

Here are four buy and hold classics (landlord books) that I noted in a blog (linked below) a few months back : Landlording (Leigh Robinson), Buy and Hold (David Schumacher), Investing in Fixxer Uppers (Decima, more a fix and hold), Nolo Every Landlord's Legal Guide (did a different title for that press, no interest in this one or any others mentioned here).For my short summaries, see:https://www.biggerpockets.com/blogs/7365/46972-cla...

I want to share, maybe not success, but my experience starting out in real estate investing.I do not have a blog so felt this was an appropriate spot.

- I specialize in both renewable and non-renewable energy land/development work which can be fical markets but I have not missed a day of work since graduating in 2010.I am new to bigger pockets but have been listening to real estate podcasts the past few months along with studying referenced books/blogs.  

Regarding legal issues about wholesaling, I can point you to another BiggerPockets post pointing to a Blog by highly respected attorney Jeff Watson, who speaks with two members of the Ohio State Board of Commerce - Real Estate Division where the regulators clearly state what is and what isn't legal regarding Wholesaling. https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/93/topics/193865-videos-of-jeff-watson-and-ohio-regulators-speaking-about-wholesaling

It was definitely a wild situation that many business owners new and experienced can learn from.If anyone would like some more information on this whole circus I wrote a blog about it How should a business owner handle a Public Relations Nightmare?

Originally posted by @Fernando Jimenez:as for the car loan, I'm stuck with it. my wife refuses to get a used 5yr old car that is in good conditions. she throws the safety and repairs arguments at me. the kicker is that i am a mechanic. lolMMM addresses this concern in one of his blog posts and I happen to agree with him.  

@Isaac BaronWelcome to BP, and congratulations on making the decision to invest in your future via real estate.I have written a few blog posts that may help you get started here on BP, and with your investing.

If you're like me and you write a blog once every 2 years, you'll lack followers. 

If I were you I would begin to continue educating myself (podcasts, forums, blogs and oh yeah podcast against) because that will give you the motivation to continue being creative to start investing.
