@David Ward  I just Spring, Texas from Connecticut for a better job opportunity and to use that as a tool to invest in Real Estate like I want to.  Not sure if you heard of him but Jerry Puckett is a successful wholesaler and an active BP member who specializes in helping people with their marketing direct mail campaigns for wholesaling.  He had an excellent Podcast episode (show 21) which I high suggest you listen to if you haven't already.  Here's his website http://marketlikeawholesaler.com/

@David Ward wanted to make sure you seen that I thanked you for the awesome info, it was a tremendous help.  Wasn't able to tag you in the previous reply I mentioned your name in.  By the way how are you doing in the wholesaling market here in Houston?

That is an excellent point @Mitch Coluzzi I didn't understand 100% of the clauses on the contracts when I read them over and I do believe there are just a couple things in there that I would tweek to benefit myself and the seller and end buyer.  I always want my deals to be a win win win across the board.  Attorneys are definitely the way to go and it's worth the money I'll pay.

Thanks for the awesome advice Patrick, I will be sure to network with my local REI and see if someone is willing to share. It also makes sense that each county may have their own different purchase and sales agreement.

For those experienced and successful wholesalers out there, where can I draw up a purchase contract for the seller and an assignment contract for the end buyer from?  Do I go to a title company/Attorney who's familiar with closing wholesale transactions to draw up the right kind of contracts I need so I can have copies?

Thanks for the Advice Jason Bott and Landon Elscott.  It seems there is a trend that I should look for a CPA rather than a financial adviser.

@Jesse Gonzalez 

I'm at a point where I really want to make my money work for me and consume less on liabilities and invest more into assets that can possibly give me a good or great return on my investments.  Budgeting and coming up with a financial blue print is of the essence and a good CPA or financial planner could be the answer.

Good afternoon to all my fellow BP members.  

Should I start searching for a financial planner now or when I start making money in RE investing?  Is it worth working with a financial planner?  I know there are different kinds out there and you have to do some extensive interviewing and researching for someone that fits what you're trying to do.  But I'd like your opinions on the matter.  Please any advice would be greatly appreciated.
