I promoise "fix & flip" sounds sexy, but it's a lot tougher and less financially rewarding than you think.I agree with most of the comments above.

Everyone wants the "charm" of the older home (1938) but no one wants the plaster, wet basement, and small kitchen.

I currently work at an insurance company, grinding away at the 9-5, but I'm hoping to get out within the next few years and work for myself :) My background is in aviation, but I am looking to switch gears and focus on something a bit more rewarding.

The capitalist system rewards hard work, so why should those who've likely worked the hardest feel guilty or responsible for taking care everyone else who decided it was easier to let those who do work harder take care of them?

But generally more risk equals higher rewards potential, and for someone with a higher risk tolerance, the risk associated debt would still be within their comfort level.

You will have to pay for the information but for the short money that you are paying, the rewards will be endless.

Charming?

Those houses south of Snyder Ave all the way to Oregon have a market of their own which result in the tricky ARV that varies per house per block.If you know the area and get some leads there its sure to be most rewarding.

I am sharing the lessons learned from two of my mentors; my father and his childhood buddy, Charlie, both have achieved great success and rewards from the real estate industry.This is not the only way to achieve success; it is just one example.
