Thank you to all who replied even though I managed to figure out the situation just hit the other forums and books to make up a business plan and hopefully get someone interested which worked take care all!!

So yeah I did my research and had my aunt who is a real estate agent get me my comps from MLS and was able to get a ARV of 103,500 with the house being 49,500 and talked to a friend who owns a construction company showed him the pics and he gave me a 15k-20k estimate for everything and then worked in escrow fees, closing cost, commission, and a 10% overage fee and that gave me a profit of 27,450 plus my cousin who has a higher credit score is going in on the deal.

Hello BP community,

Now I my self am new to flipping I live in Peoria IL and have found a few deals that seem to be homeruns. Only problem I have is i have bad credit (under 600) and will take some time to rebuild it, will this be a issue in my goals of flipping or should I find someone withing my social circle who is willing to go in on this flip that has good credit? 

Thanks.
