Would like some information on flipping houses

[Peter Schafer]

How can I begin flipping houses? I've read a fair amount of Real Estate books, saved over $12,000.00 and increased my credit score to 740. I feel I am ready from a financial perspective. I would buy the house, rehab, lease out and then do a cash out refinance so I have a little money coming in every month and could use the properties as a source of collateral for future loans. The way I see it is, I need a lender and a great GC. I hear great General Contractors are hard to come by. And my ideal lender would offer 100% LTV. So I guess my main questions would be, does anyone have a lender that could provide loans in the Iowa area at 100% LTV, where to find a great GC, and is there anybody else I would need on my team? Other than agents? Thank you
