The first time you estimated costs..

Good morning everyone :)

We are evaluating our first buy and hold.. a little 700 sq ft 2/1 bungalow. It will need quite a bit in repairs, but we have zero experiencing in estimating costs of repairs.

When evaluating a property, how do you best ballpark the figures for rehab? Anyone have any lessons they've learned that we'd be smart to learn early? We just don't even know where to begin.. short of scouring the forums here for related posts :)

Thanks in advance!
