I am fairly new to REI and very interesting in wholesaling. I've researched for 3 months and ready to step in and possibly partner with someone with more experience. I'm open to Jv.
My advice is to connect with the wholesalers and real estate investor groups in the Phoenix metro area. You'll connect with some wholesalers face to face, and likely find someone who would help you facilitate the transaction if you find the deal (for a fee of course). Then you just gotta put feet to pavement and find one. Best of luck!
