Founding an education in Rehab/Construction for investing

[DeAndre Wheeler]

I am getting into BRRRR investing and I do not have a large background in construction. I would like to educate myself as much as possible so that I will know what to expect from a contractor when I'm doing a rehab of a property. I want to know the best way to educate myself more in this space. I need to learn about how much building materials cost and also how to structure contracts so that I don't get taken advantage of during the process. I have a full time job so I don't have the opportunity to be an apprentice or anything like that. Can anyone recall how they accumulated the knowledge, skills, and abilities to learn how to properly manage a rehab and not get taken advantage of?
