Flipping Or Renting Starting Out

[Jaason White]

Hello, to start off on some basics Im 24 and live in central Illinois and im looking to start making extra income in real estate until i can get enough deals done to where i can do it full time. My issue is i have no clue which direction to go and the fear of failure is holding me back. Ive always been drawn to flipping im a hands on person who likes the idea of renovation and turning something that doesnt have appeal into something that has great appeal. The problem is im not sure if that is a great idea and if it will work out. On the other hand everyone in my family tells me rentals are the way to go. Im not sure which direction to go and any advice is welcome. Thank you
