This post is more of a question about the stock market. Should I invest the money I plan on using for a down payment into the stock market while I continue to save? It is going to take me about 2 years to save up enough money because I'm in college so maybe it would be worth it? I would love to hear everyone's opinion on this.

So I am starting research into wholesaling and learning a lot about direct mail, etc. the point is I am hearing all of the ways to contact sellers but I don't have a clue on how to find buyers and contact them with deals, how far in with the seller do I need to be before it's a good idea to contact potential buyers? Also my local market is central Florida, I am located near Daytona Beach.

Thanks! 

@Erik Kuhi Thank you so much! That's some awesome advice, I'll keep it in mind, thanks again!

Thanks for the input! I plan to continue learning like you said. I love the idea of real-estate and need some extra money so I might try flipping or wholesaling while building money to find a house to make into a rental.

Hi, I am brand new to this website. I have however been listening to the podcast for a few weeks now and I read a couple of books that were recommended and am now starting to build up some knowledge. I bought my first house literally Tuesday this week and am getting moved in currently. I am contemplating my next steps and what I should do as I am currently at college at Embry Riddle Aeronautical University in Daytona Beach, Florida. I have an income surplus of about $800 per month that I can use to invest and save. Should I save for a 20% down payment or find another way to get into real-estate investing as I only have $5000 saved currently. My interest currently is in Single Family Rentals.

Please feel free to share your thoughts, all help is appreciated,

Thanks!
