Starting from scratch needing help

[Dondi Johnson]

My situation:

• I'm 60 years old, working full-time in logistics/warehouse
• I want to transition into real estate investing over the next 1-3 years
• My goal is to eventually build and develop holistic communities
• I don't have a lot of capital right now, but I'm willing to learn and put in the work

What I'm interested in:

• Wholesaling (I understand this requires little/no money and is good for beginners)
• Bird-dogging (finding deals for other investors and getting paid a finder's fee)
• Creative financing strategies (ways to invest without perfect credit or a lot of cash)
• Partnerships (working with investors who have capital while I bring hustle/deal-finding)

My questions:

1. What's the best way to learn wholesaling from scratch? (Books, podcasts, courses?)
2. How do I find local investors in the Charleston, SC area to network with or partner with?
3. What are the first steps I should take in the next 30-60 days to start learning?

I'm based in North Charleston, South Carolina if that helps with local resources.

Thanks for any guidance you can provide!

 You state you want to transistion to real estate investing over the next 1-3 years.

Let's start with how many hours/week do you think that will require?
