This is some gold advice @Breon Smith. Thanks so much. I plan to try these tricks as soon as possible. Don't re-invent the wheel right? :) thanks again! 

Brock Laramee congrats on taking some huge steps forward in your RE career! Good luck with wholesaling. You seem like you have your ducks in a row and you will be great at it. Breon Smith you've been actively wholesaling for 2 months and have already made 2 deals? Can I ask how your first deal went? I am a new wholesaler/turn key investor and I'm actively looking for new deals in the Houston area. I'd love to hear how your first deal came about.

Thanks for the advice, Percy. I will look further into portfolio lending right now. 

I do have great credit so I'm hoping that will at least get my foot in the door. That helps so much, thank you! 

Hi Amber Koontz thanks so much for the tip! I've been looking for another book to start after "think and grow rich".

Hi Benjamin Blackburn not necessarily. I am open to anywhere in the Houston area. Preferably north Houston so I can visit the property often and conveniently.

Hi Matt I want to find a property that is move-in ready with no rehab needed(if small issues need fixed that's OK). This would be my first property purchase and I want to hear from others more experienced in real estate to tell me which route I should go as far as financing is concerned. My initial goal is to purchase many rental properties(6-8 doors to start) and to maintain them myself until I can find a good property manager to hire to take my place. Hope this answers your question.

Hi Everyone! I am in the market to purchase my first duplex in hopes to rent out both units and not live in it myself. I came across a potential buy for me and now the confusing part for me comes in, what is the best way to finance?! I am not looking to pay cash for this property. How much should I put down, how should I finance, should I ask for owner financing? Any advice on my next steps would be so helpful. I have attached the listing from Zillow so you all can take a look for yourself. http://www.zillow.com/homedetails/12202-Ormandy-St-Houston-TX-77085/28281825_zpid/ Thanks guys!

What an inspiring story! I am 25 years old and am in search of my first rental property. I would love to pick your brain for any tips you may have for me. Congrats!

Hi Daniel Starting out, Are you looking for duplexes, multiplexes, single family homes? I am a wholesaler and would love to send you some of the deals I come across.
