Beginner "Flipper" in need of major experience Suffolk County NY

[Account Closed]

So, it's understood that I need to save up a "massive" amount of money in order to even think about a flip but I know my area (Central Islip Suffolk County) very well as well as its surrounding areas and am itching to learn and experience how to flip local foreclosed homes. I read an infographic here that shows the steps
to flipping. I have the first step, Research, covered now all i need is the Network and (scared to say this but) Investor(s) (because I'm dead broke)
I would just at least like to experience and learn how to flip. Especially the very detailed like realistic costs, etc. So I'm asking if someone in Suffolk or Nassau is planning to flip and needs some help on the project, I'm all hands. A closed mouth don't get fed so bare with me here.

I'm also still having a hard time understanding how you can flip a house with no money if you have an investor. How do you get your investor to trust you? Especially if this is your first flip. How do you even find an investor? And you will need some sort of money to have an investor correct?
