Hi  I started in investing in 2007 with short sales but that all crashed and i kept my day job.  Unfortunately my day job went away and in 2011 I was involuntarily retired.  I've been waiting for real estate market to come back and feel it has.  I'm starting with wholesaling as I need to develop cash cushion and build contacts to get fully involved.  I'm also an attorney with a lot of varied experience so feel free to ask and I will try to help, no charge.  I hope this forum can help me get up to speed as a lot has changed.  Looking for any help I can get.   Anyway, hello to all and hope we can have a mutually beneficial relationship.  Thanks.
