Flipping a House in Utah

[Daniel Howard]

I have found a couple of REO houses that seem like they could be good candidates for a flip, and I'm interested in visiting the properties to get a more accurate idea of the repair costs that will need to go into these to be able to either resale them or rent them out.

I have two questions:

• What is the best way to get a fairly accurate estimation on repair costs (I have never done any sort of house repair work)?
• What are some of the extra things I need to be mindful of when buying REO property?

Any feedback is appreciated. I am just starting out, so I'm eager to learn everything that I can from everyone.

Thank you

What city are the houses in ?

If your doing a fairly big rehab it’s about 25 bucks a square foot to gut he house.

Need way more details for an accurate answer to the questions.
