@Michael Knaus - I've worked with a couple of investors in my early years. Mostly finding properties via mls or just driving and spotting a property. I've also flipped a property long time ago which almost turned into a disaster. 

As far as the comment about "it takes time". Really? I know this. I am looking for action steps given my criteria. 
I only want advise on direction. What is good to focus in on given the criteria I've mentioned. That's it. 

Credit repair takes time. What can I do now? 

I've recently moved back to Pensacola, Florida and I'm helping my friend by rentals in Baldwin County, Alabama. 

Helping my friend has reignited my desire to take action for myself in real estate. 

HOWEVER, I don't know where to start. 

Here is my profile:

Income: $80,000
Credit:  Bankruptcy / Divorce two years ago. Need I say more.
Savings: $6,000
Talent: I love details, photography, and I'm web savvy because I'm a web developer even though I'd like to be a full time investor and say good-bye to tech. 

I'm limited because I don't have a big chunk of money and my credit is horrible. However, I have a decent income. 
I suspect most will tell me Wholesaling. But I want any ideas as to how and where to start.

What Action steps can I take?

I'm also thinking of upgrading my bigger pockets membership because of the tools offered.

I'm just trying to get mls access and round up some financing. Gosh, it's hard to know how to spot a good reo and then not be able to fund it. This is a harder business that some let on... Not giving up, just looking for answers in the Jacksonville Florida area

My life is officially flashing before my eyes. Oh well, another obsticle to overcome.

Gee Don. Nice words of encouragement.

Thanks Matt. I'm really feeling the love. However, I know there is still major action ahead of me and probably a few mistakes on the horizon.

Thanks James. It only took 10 years of paralysis to do something.

Sure. All I can say is that it was Bandit Signs all over the place that read "Real Cheap House blah blah blah".
I was a mad man for selling George, the rehabbers property.
Now George is going to help me with a good Hard Money source, give a testimonial on my soon to be website, and even let me sell his inventory on my site so I look legit.
Fake it til you make it baby.

Thanks Will. I noticed that your on the forum quite a bit and I'm glad you are. You seem to know what your talking about.
