Oh cool. So if I'm new to real estate investing it's ok right? I've been listening to the podcasts daily and reading books to try and learn as much as possible. I work full time for an engineering firm but am looking to get my foot in the door in real estate. I have a good amount in cash that I have saved over the years that I am looking to invest in real estate.

Hey Chuck,

Thanks for getting back to me. That's awesome. I'll definitely check it out next Monday. I love that it's right around the corner. So what do you guys discuss at the Harford strategies meet up?

Thank you for the information Chidiogo. I will look into these.

I live in Forest Hill, MD. Does anyone know what the closest REI meetup may be to me? I am aware of the BWI meetup but was wondering if there was anything closer to Harford County. I would love the opportunity to introduce myself to local investors who have the same goals and vision that I have.

How do people feel about using a management company like Renters Warehouse to manage their rental properties as opposed to managing them yourself? Is it worth the additional fee if you only have one rental property? I work a full time job and am in the process of pursuing a rental property and feel like I can manage this myself. Anyone with experience in either doing it yourself or using a management company, do you mind providing some feedback? I appreciate the comments BP.

Thank you all for these great resources.

What if I am the flipper buying from a wholesaler? Do I have to pay in cash or can it be a loan?

Are wholesale deals cash only or can I use a hard money/conventional/FHA loan if I don't have the Capitol to purchase the property outright?

Hello BP. I am looking for my first flip property and was wondering how the wholesale process works. Does someone mind explaining this to me? What is a wholesale property and how is it ideal for someone looking to make his first flip? I have been listening to the pod casts and reading up on wholesaling but still don't quiet understand the process. I appreciate any feedback.
