New wholesale investor in Philly.

Hi Everyone!

My name is Charla and I'm a Wholesaler looking to network with other investors in the Philadelphia, Pa area. Currently I am a member of the REIA Philly and WHIP (Wholesaling Houses In Philly). I have also invested in the Fortune Builders program. I'm excited about the forums and hope to continue to gain knowledge and hopefully be able to help others in the near future.

@Charla H.

The advise I would give you is to save all your money and become an avid reader. Do buy any systems or programs from the so called "guru's" Its a waste of money and this is coming from a guy who spent 2k before having to figure it out.

If you have that kind of money to blow then you should just get in on deals. Lend money to investors for repairs charge them interested and ask to see the progress of their work. You'll learn soooo much.

Or find a mentor and take her/him out on to a really nice place, butter them up and pick their brains. You get much more currently, relevant, and local information that way.

I love ebay also. I buy used books and make them feel new again. Anytime BiggerPockets recommends a book, I but it used and read it. This alone has helped me tremendously. I sound like a pro and I've only been doing this for about 5 months.

Sorry I ranted, but thats my advice. Cheers.
