Hey Sebastian, Welcome to Bigger Pockets!

We similarly started out with the plan to Flip a couple of houses then started to Hold.

There is much to learn, especially when just getting started and I would encourage you to invest some time in your education.

I've found Audible Audiobooks are a great resource to learn from. I use Audible daily. I can listen to books and educate myself on whatever I want while at the gym, in the car, etc.

A couple I'd recommend to you based on your post are..

FLIP - How to Find, Fix, and Sell Houses for Profit

The Book on Flipping Houses How to Buy, Rehab, and Resell Residential Properties

This book is not currently available on Audible but a must read

The Book on Estimating Rehab Costs - J Scott

Bigger Pockets has become one of my best resources. I encourage you to get involved, ask questions, be open to feedback, and allow other seasoned investors to help guide you along your journey of Real Estate Investing.

I'd also check out local REIA meetings, this can be a great place to get to know other investors in your area and network with people.

Best of Luck!

Hey Orhi, 

Looks like it's priced at/above retail. It's been on the market 1 day which tells me the seller likely isn't motivated yet to give you a great price or terms. What is your overall goal/plan for this property? What are you looking to accomplish?

Hey Jonathan!

The BRRRR Strategy can a GREAT one as you can increase the value of a property through rehab prior to renting it.

I'd recommend learning as much as you can about the different aspect of it...

Audible Audiobooks are a great resource to do that. I use Audible daily. I can listen to books and educate myself on whatever I want while at the gym, in the car, etc.

There are a wide array books available and a few I think may benefit from, if you haven't stumbled across them already, are....

Hey Dan, Welcome to Bigger Pockets!

I think considering to educate yourself before beginning is the RIGHT choice. Many new investors get started knowing little to nothing. While I don't recommend waiting until you know everything before getting started, I think having a decent understanding of what you're investing your/other's money in is smart.

Perhaps you're not reading the right books?

Hey Hunter, Welcome to Bigger Pockets!

Fix/Flip & Wholesaling - Both GREAT strategies that can work well with each other!

I'd recommend looking into the BRRRR Strategy. Buy, Rehab, Rent, Refi, Repeat.

Decide if you interested in Short/Med/Long Term Rentals. Are you interested in increasing the value of the property through rehab prior to renting it?

I'd also recommend learning as much as you can about each while you embark down the path of pursuing them.

Audible Audiobooks are a great resource to do that. I use Audible daily. I can listen to books and educate myself on whatever I want while at the gym, in the car, etc.

There are a wide array books available and a few I think may benefit you to start with are...
