Hey Troy G. - As you get up here - or start planning your move, be sure to look me up.

However I am not sure how wholesaling a gas station would be different than a house, besides the obvious fact that it is considered commercial.The reason I am trying this is because I have connections with a guy I go to church with.

It costs a lot to keep gas in the trucks we have to drive.

The only thing you really care about: is it leaking!

You need to build your buyers' database so spend a few bucks on gas and network with real estate people in your area.

Or, you could start out by wholesaling, which can be done with little money (I did not say none, as you'll still have some expenses, like gas, basic marketing, small amount of earnest money deposit, etc.).

And I was initially drawn to the real estate business through a connection with my day job (oil & gas law) as well.I'll be joining a couple of the local REIA clubs in the coming weeks, and hope to run into you there.Best,Mike
