If you had 15K...

If you were starting out with 15,000 cash and you wanted to flip homes, what steps would you take first? 15K is obviously not enough to flip an entire home.

This is what I'm starting with right now. I have done alot of contracting work (I'm not an expert on anything-I can do generally good work but would need to hire somebody for precise carpentry in certain circumstances).

I work a regular 8-4 job and live in a rural area. Homes can range from 20K (or lower for trash) to 200,000. Average first time home buyers pay between 60 and 100 in our area.
