Estimating Rehab costs for prospective properties

[Charlie Parker]

Hello everyone, this is my first post as I am new to BiggerPockets. I am looking to jump in and start investing in my first property and looking to flip it. I am new to investing in real estate, and have questions. I am going to be meeting with a real estate agent to look at some distressed properties and want to know if anyone has tips about how to estimate the cost to repair any damages to the property in order to figure out if the property is worth the investment. Thanks
