Starting in rehabs

[Jarred S.]

I have made a few posts regarding my intentions down the road through real estate investing. I would eventually like to do rehab homes while managing my rentals. There has been much said for focusing on one thing and devoting all my time to being successful at a particular endeavor. That I do agree with. BUT, how do rehabbers exactly get started? Do you shadow other rehabbers on their projects? I am just trying to get a path down and am having a hard time understanding how to get to rehabs. Do I just start there with my savings? I do not plan to be a wholesaler but I notice some (maybe most) rehabbers do some wholesaling deals when the opportunity is presented.
Any response would be greatly appreciated.
