 In my mind the most appropriate thing to do would be flip. I've gone over several scenarios and possibilities and that's what seems to make the most sense. Once I've done a couple flips then it would seem more realistic to seek out my other goals. Do you agree? I actually have a property I've been looking at that would be a great buy and hold but then I hit the no credit, no money issue.

@Mike Jones

 Did you start in a similar situation such as mine?

Restore not read. Darn auto correct

@Josh bakhshi 

First and foremost I am trying my hardest to find a mentor.  I have always had a mini obsession with real estate.

I would like to flip a couple of properties with a partner until I am able to purchase and rehab on my own. 

Once I accomplish that I want to do a couple buy and holds. Rental properties. 

My greatest long term goal is to be in a position to buy historical properties and read them to their original splendor with modern conveniences.

@Paul timmins 

Thank you for the advice. I have downloaded them to read :-)

I also reached out to an REIA. I am supposed to meet with the founder this week as well as attend a monthly meeting next week. My hopes are as high as my ambition right now

So I've taken a great deal of my afternoon reading over various threads and forums for beginners like myself. 

I am unable to finance a home. I don't have much cash. 

My question is does anyone know an investor, flipper or rehabber that would be willing to mentor a novice such as myself? 

I have good ideas. I am strong willed and determined.

I read where someone said starting out in this business with no money and no credit is impossible. That it was hog wash. I am going to make the impossible, possible! 

I live in WV but am primarily looking for a mentor in MD or VA

Good question! I needed to know as well. Welcome! 

@Michael S.

Thanks! Excited to be here

Hi All! I am new here as of today!  I've "stalked" this forum for weeks. I was worried it may be a scam (I've come across so many in my real estate research) but of course found it is not. I am looking for Investors that are not only willing to mentor me in every aspect but also someone that may be willing to partner up with me. My brain is a sponge and I get a great amount of pleasure out of learning new things and putting it to use!

I am looking for an investor/mentor/partner in MD, VA or WV.

I am unfortunately unable to finance a house or project so other tips are absolutely welcome!

Thank you!!

I agree with Jon. I wouldn't pay too much attention to the well company. You'd deal with the city directly for an estimate to tap in. If it were me I would tap into City. Good Luck

@Keith Boley Your original post is very informative. I am new here and cant wait to see what else I can learn!
