There are some good suggestions in there about repairing and or (re)establishing your credit.
I have not bought any property yet, I have made about 10-15 calls and went to look at about 8 homes. I feel had I been ready (that is finished the course) I could have bought at least one of the properties I was looking at, using lease options as a way to purchase. The other no-down techniques, I have yet to learn. Good luck on your decision.

www.creonline.com has some of the best information on real estate I have found. Your best bet would be to read the Success Stories, How To sections, and NewsGroup postings, and get a feel for what you want to learn, or what area you are interested in. They also have an assortment of great books and courses to buy if you feel the need, and/or want to learn more.
