Well, You have to hustle hard! But hustling doesnt have to mean being dishonest. Dont fluff your prices too much. Make a little at a time and definitely pay a finders fee or referral fee to those who help you. Learn how to evaluate a property, pull, read and understand comps. Beware of those that say the will "teach" you. Some are good and some are bad. There are a few good mentors in Indianapolis and some not so good. Be fair to the buyer. You cant make a fortune on one deal.
