I just got a call from a very enthusiastic lady about my newly purchased book, and was a bit embarassed that I hadn't even opened the package....sorry. I have always wanted to dabble in the quick turn over of real estate, but was concerned about the possibility of finantual fall out of failure. Maybe someone can give me some real world ideas of what I need to do to get started, and what is considered too deep for the first time person like myself. I read where it's a good idea to have some friends in the real estate business, but my concern is that once they have been given the heads-up by me, that they will just take over the deal...I know that real estate is pretty cut-throat, at least that is what I have heard from friends that have dealt with others in a partner sort of relationship....any ideas?
