    Have been researching real estate investing for a while now.
    Realize that now is probably a great time to get started; with
    all the REO's, Foreclosures, etc......The only experience I have
    is that my husband and I purchased a REO several years ago---
    at 35% of asking price.  Long story -- ARM nightmare; learning
    experience.  So now we are starting over.  From researching, I
    believe our best venture is to start by finding deals for others,
    continue studying, and then when we get our tax refund (8K+) we
    can sell our mobile home (8k+) and have some money to start
    investing into real estate to wholesale.  Does this sound realistic?
    Any ideas on how to get started making money would be greatly
    appreciated.

    Hi Shelly, Tim Cook here with AllWholesaleProperties.com.  Waiting until you have money is not required or recommended.  YOU DON'T NEED MONEY to make money in this business.  You need time, drive, determination, goals, and a mentor.  Partner with someone or find a Mentor such as myself, Greg or Robin and let us teach you.  You can also go to my web site above and request my FREE REPORT on 74 Ways to find wholesale deals.  You can birddog deals and once you find a wholesale deal bring it to myself or another BUYER and get paid a fee.  You can even post your deals on my site above for FREE and we'll distribute to our buyers list for them to consider buying.

    Call if I can help

    Make 2011 a great year!

    Tim

    Hi Shelly,

    You're in the right place.  You can get started birddogging and wholesaling right away with very little to no money.  Deals are everywhere, and there are plenty of people who will buy them from you, including my wife, Cindy, and me.  Also, go to as many REI Networking meetings as you can.  We meet every Saturday.  Click here for our meeting location, times, etc.  If you have any questions, please feel free to give me a call any time at 817-300-1132 or email me at Robin@DFWREIClub.com.

    Thanks,

    Robin

    ps.  Our Wholesale Real Estate Investing Class is coming up on Feb. 5, 2011.  Click Here for details.  Thanks again
