- 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?

@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.

That blog was not intended to give you YOUR answer.
