Saving money for my first flip

I'm definitely new to the business. I've been reading, listening and purchased coach lessons for 5k which I regret. Want to be that person who buy low fix and flip. I currently moved in my moms attic after divorcing with to small children to save money from a 9 to 5 job. My plan is to save 60k  in 3 years and buy my first flip in Florida. Not Ohio I hated here. When I successfully flip 3 houses I will quit my job, move to Florida and flip full time this is my goal my dream.

Love listening to BiggerPockets Podcast. I learn and stay inspired.

@Melissa Boulding,

While you're saving, learn how to court and partner with private lenders. You can probably get started a good bit earlier working with people rather than trying to go it alone.
