Good Afternoon BP community,
I am a newbie to wholesaling and I am very confused about where I should start. I have no mentor and I'm also dealing with a little fear of failure. So, my question is what are the most important things when starting out and what helps you get over your fear?
Check out the free BiggerPockets Podcast - A weekly podcast with interviews and a ton of great advice. And you get the benefit of having over 100 past ones to catch up on.
Locate and attend 3 different local REIA club meetings great place to meet people gather resources and info. Here you will meet wholesalers who provide deals and all the cash buyers (rehabbers) you will need.

@Zaahid Holloman@Paul Timmins provides great information to start! Get a local mentor, attend local real estate investor meetings (yes some cost money) but well worth it. Continue to use BiggerPockets as a tool, ask questions, and after you learn start answering questions; this is how you learn.
The hardest part is taking the first step to doing your first one; but you have to learn and we tend to learn better by doing! In this business you need to take action, network and don't procrastinate - just DO!
both have excellent recommendations. Also, I like to recommend two resources that I found valuable: the podcasts (free on iTunes: biggerpockets) and "rich dad, poor dad" by Robert Kiyosaki ($7 on Amazon). Welcome and jump right in!
