Hi guys,

Long time lurker here looking to get his feet wet in the world of Real Estate. I am wondering for someone getting started in wholesaling should I look for buyers first to get an idea of what properties to look for or should I go ahead and find a property/seller first?

Also, I plan to wholesale in Virginia Beach, VA and Chesapeake, VA before possibly expanding to the rest of the Hampton Roads area. Is this feasible in the state of Virginia, especially in the midst of this pandemic? If so, what are the laws and regulations I should be are aware of?

Welcome to Hampton Roads @Derald Frazier! Danielle is spot on with the real estate licensing course. I did mine with Advanced School of Real Estate with Bob Chance on VA Beach Blvd - highly recommend him if you enjoy in-person learning for your license. He does a great job breaking down everything you need to know (and things you don't need to know) for the exam. Best of luck!!

Thank you! I appreciate the suggestion and will be looking into it; however, I prefer to learn from home.

Welcome! Glad that you’ve decided to dive into real estate.

If you are okay with virtual learning for your real estate license, I’d suggest Kaplan College of Real Estate.

Try some of the investor FB groups to help get motivated and learn from others.

On books:

Rich Dad, Poor Dad

The House Hacking Strategy

Buy, Rehab, Rent, Refinance, Repeat

Check out the Bigger Pockets book store.

Best of luck on your new journey,

Danielle

Thank you!

I've been doing my research on what colleges to go with. I'll give Kaplan College of Real Estate a look. I'll probably make a decision within the next week or so.

I appreciate the book recommendations. I already read Rich Dad, Poor Dad which serves as one of my inspirations for giving this a go. I'll check out the other books you've recommended as well as the BiggerPockets library.

Thank you for your feedback and good luck to you as well.

@Derald Frazier welcome to BP, Hampton Roads can be a great place to invest. What are you looking for?

I'm thinking about stepping into wholesale as a way to learn the ins and outs while I get my license.

Hi BP,

Nice to meet everyone. My name is Derald and I am a newbie investor looking to get his feet wet in real estate investing. I currently live in Virginia Beach, Virginia and I've always been interested in diving into the world of real estate. I will soon be in the process of going to school to receive my real estate agent license. I've been a lurker for quite some time so I figured this would be a good time as any to join and build lasting relationships.

Just wanted to stop by to introduce myself and I look forward to connecting with you guys. Feel free to reach out to me anytime if I can be of service.

PS - What are a few books that you guys would recommend for someone looking to get their start?
