House Flipping for someone without a knowledge base of construction.

[Gavin Jones]

Hi all,

I am a beginner real estate agent and would love to get into flipping houses or fixing them up and making them rentals. My problem is that I don't know anything about the actual repair process so it scares me to buy when I don't know the price of things to fix. I've been an agent for 6 months and in that time I have learned a ton about what to look out for buy reading inspections reports, going to inspections, and meeting field experts. But even with this I don't know the cost of things such as ripping out a wall or putting backsplash under cabinets, etc.

What is the best thing I could do to learn this? I want to learn but don't know where to start. Thank you in advance.
