It seems to me that there are generally two "camps" of investors. Equity market investors and real estate investors. I am the former and am hoping to recreate at age 54 and develop into a home "flipper" and build a reputation as a realtor with a strong knowledge of home renovation. I purchased the BP Podcast from Denver and am trying to figure out the best way to get started in purchasing a property either on Chicago's north side or the best suburbs for flipping , rehab it and sell it hopefully at a profit. I am considering some of the programs that offer coaching at prices ranging from 10-30K but offer experienced people to help a newbie navigate the territory as well as evaluate the best communities and properties for success. I have started attending some investor meetings but am experiencing anxiety committing as I have no experience in this arena and not sure who to trust. I would welcome suggestions from folks who have experience and or success on best ways to move forward and get something going! Thanks!
