I have educated myself over the last 10 years on real estate investing--seminars, books, podcasts, blogs, market research, etc.

Read blogs, post questions, and the podcasts are gold!

I have read blogs that mentioned selling to "wholesale investment companies".

@Mark Ferguson Mark good work here, I love following along with your blog and looking at your projects.

Big fan of the blog, podcast and the forums.

PS. if you have a link to your blog article about this topic, or know of a website that answers these questions please feel free to share too!

Also please don't forget we are talking about Toledo and Dayton, Ohio.These cities are much smaller than Memphis and have also been over the years ranked numerous times as the most affordable in the country compared to incomes.Feel free to read my blog about my perception on the different asset classes.http://www.biggerpockets.com/renewsblog/2014/06/28/abcs-real-estate-asset-classes/Thanks and have a great day.

http://clintcoons.wordpress.com/author/ccoons12/the above blog is an interesting read.......

I haven't completed my first deal yet, but I've had deals slip through my fingers.I realized I hadn't posted up any signs in a month so I went out and later that day I had a seller call who is now in a title search and I should be closing within the next week for close to $7000 in profit.Check out my action blog on BiggerPockets if you'd like to see the layout =) Hope it helps!

what are the advantages and disadvantages of blog versus forum?
