Better to get going now and adjust your strategy once you get a few properties under your belt.

Again, this is all dependent on you finding an experienced and successful rehabbers in your area.Going alone - My first flip as well as my first buy and hold deal was done on my own, that said, I had an extreme drive, was self motivated, and had the experience of self emplupyment under my belt for nearly a decade before I tried it.

@George Blower What if I got laid off in February, prior to Covid? 

Hey all - With only one rental under my belt, interested in learning from you all and giving back where I can.  

I don’t have as many as you under my belt.

I am a builder of MF assets with a ton of hotel construction under my belt.

I was able to get 2 transactions under my belt, but right now, my life requires that I get a full time job and a regular paycheck.

We had a small ranch with a couple of 240v electric wall heaters with blowers & his electric bill ran up to $300/month during the cold upstate NY winters.

If you have some rehab deals under your belt, create a webpage (or Google Drive page) for each one and upload "before and after" pics to showcase your skills with transforming properties from junk to candy. 

Once you get a few under your belt, you'll have capital and a track record.
