Good evening, all.

I am a beginner in wholesaling here in Phoenix, AZ, doing some driving for dollars tomorrow and working to get my first deal by the end of March. I'd like to get recommendations from local investors on which groups in the area are most valuable to join as I begin networking and building my buyer's list. Thanks so much!

@Mike Dmuchoski thank you, that's a great suggestion!

@Denny Robert I've heard great feedback and done good research on the FHA route. What a great position your client has right now!

@Zane Belden I appreciate your feedback. I am currently renting and I am ready to begin building my own equity!

I want to obtain financial freedom and cash flow, but long term residual income as well. I have researched for the last few months however, I was hoping to learn more from some of the gurus here as well. How did you get started in real estate, if you don't mind me inquiring? I'm just a sponge. I'd like to soak up as much as I can.

I apologize for not being clear. Buying my first property to rent out solely to tenants, not an owner occupied property. I am not fond of the idea of buying a SFH or duplex, for that matter, and renting it out to tenants as well.

Hi,

I am struggling with whether I should purchase my own home first or an investment property. I am from the east coast, but I've lived in Phoenix, AZ for almost 5 years. I don't plan to live in Phoenix for the remainder of my adult life however, I do believe there are great opportunities here for investment properties. 

What are the benefits and disadvantages of each? I want to make an educated decision. I have done research, but I'd also like to get feedback from the experts here!

Hello,

My name is Chelsey. I am 26 years old and I live in the West Valley of Phoenix, AZ. I am new to real estate investing and I am interested in knowing what amount of money is thought to be reasonable to use as a novice investor? Meaning, is starting small reasonable to do?
