Dedicated in getting into rehabbing, house flipping, and BRRRR

[Randy Achi]

Hi everyone! I'm currently looking to get into real estate, and I find house flipping and repairs an interesting category to get into. However, I have very little knowledge about getting started. I have watched a few videos, but I want to be able to learn from others and really get hands-on experience (In general, I want this to become my passion!) Thanks all, and I hope to connect with you all soon!

Go to local real estate investor meetups, there are a lot of them in Chicago, and start networking. After a few months you will find out who is flipping and rehabbing and you can offer your sweat equity to help them and learn while you are there. Flipping is very hard without capital and experience (i.e. impossible) because you would have to rely on contractors who know you are new and will take you for a money ride while your hard money turns over in its grave. It's great that you know what you are interested, but YouTube can be good and very bad. Meet other young investors in your area asap.
