Thanks man I appreciate that. So basically I'm making a name for myself as a wholesaler period no company I come up with or anything of that nature.

Roland yessir isn't a broker considered the same thing pretty much?from what I have read about them they get licensed I just want to do it the right way not the get in trouble way. Brian I have a little list of names for people that buy houses and iv drove around and looked at places. As far as marketing do you mean just advertising that I can help sell your house? What would be a correct way of wording that so it doesn't sound like a novice is going to treat you like dirt. I understand the contract part (almost all of it). I'm eager to go out and grind and make that first deal just have a few more things to feel comfortable about before doing so.

I'm 28 years old looking to get into real estate. I figured I could start by doing wholesaling, eventually getting into buy to hold. I live in a small town outside of chattanooga tn so that would be my main place and do some outside of there as well. My questions are would you need a license of some sort for this, if not do you just start by finding a property with a motivated seller and contact them and begin negotiations? It seems simple but complex at the same time. I work in chattanooga as a Journeyman electrician and want to get into this. I just dont know exactly how to begin. Any and all advice would be awesome thank you.
