I'm a local realtor and investor, so I’d love to help you find the right property and navigate the market.

Thank you,Phil Don’t have any experience with the mentioned mentors, but I do have 45 years experience in commercial real estate investing.Flipping (wholesaling) commercial properties require the same base of knowledge (real estate principles, real estate law and real estate finance) that is a foundational requirement for flipping residential properties; PLUS, extensive knowledge of the commercial property TYPE one is trying to engage with, and extensive knowledge of the local real estate market for the subject property type. 

Assuming that every vendor involved is experienced and legitimate, then the turnkey house seems to have the least "risk" but also the lowest returns. 

These deals can be profitable in growing markets with strong cash flow and equity growth, but success depends on the builder’s execution, local market conditions, and your ability to refinance effectively.

Find local real estate investor meetups and attend the meetings.

I’d love to connect with local investors, agents, lenders, and contractors in the Kansas City area.

Something like $1,200 for the local “fancy upgrade”.

Understand the local permitting requirements, keep eyes on your property to avoid squatters, and make sure you have a great vacant insurance policy while you're renovating.

Term 12 years so that payment is just about the same as local renting market pricing.

I would suggest finishing school, working as a part time agent while you are at school, saving commissions for investing, and working with a team that focuses on investing as opposed to residential sales.There are also local meet ups every month.
