Hey everyone, I'm day one into deciding I want to wholesale. When you all were starting out what platforms or people did you learn from? And how did you create your buyers lists?

Either an LLC they already paid for, or a form of advertising would be my 2 guesses. 

Best place is to go to local investors events check classified events. but Education is not free  Look for groups doing it ask how you can help them. 

My guess is we will probably start to see more of this as its one thing for a deal to go bad another if the sponsor is negligent and did not do what they said they would. 

For everyone thinking about getting into real estate investing, I recommend spending at least 6 months educating yourself through websites likes this and its family of books and podcasts, other real estate podcasts, books at the library, and local meetups.

Since then I’ve been educating myself as much as humanly possible by reading books, listening to podcasts, watching YouTube videos, going to my local meetup (which is small), and going to every free webinar I can find.

College or “college like” education/courses follow a path of basic course work to intermediate to advanced.  

I’m guessing she changed titles to dodge the SEC but I have no actual proof of that.

If you pursue conventional financing (agency), then your education debt is calculated in one of a few ways:If a monthly liability is reported on your credit report, that is the amount that will be used in the DTI calculation.If there is no monthly liability on your credit report (shows blank or zero), Fannie UW will use 1% of the total debt towards your DTI calc and Freddie UW will take 0.5% of the total debt towards your DTI calc.Depending on what type of 1099 income you have, you may be able to offset your income with deductions or credits to essentially "zero" out the impact on your DTI.
