OK I have decided to seriously take a look at my situation and what I can do to get into real estate in my area. I realized there was only one thing standing between me and the industry and that is being handy. I am terrible at fixing things. I figured why write it off all together. It's only a stumbling block.

Are there any people who are not handy and if so how would you approach this? Do you hire out to do any repairs/maintenance etc?

I want to get by that stumbling block. I know I can learn certain things but I am just not very handy. How can I start without much credit? Should I dump a few thousand into a mobile home??
