There is also tons of quality books on the subject which can give you a good overview.  

I don't think craiglist is a good source for property overview.

Make sure to read the Ultimate Beginners Guide at www.biggerpockets.com/UBG, it will give you a good overview of how you can make money in REI.

It takes patience and persistence but it's not complicated.Once you have an overview from the guides, you might want to look into buying 'The Book on Flipping Houses' which comes with 'The Book on Estimating Rehab Costs', also under the 'Education' tab.  

Just be careful to get a VERY good contractor in to give you an honest and COMPREHENSIVE bid on the job.

It's by a guy called Steve Howell and as far as I know, he's the only one offering such a comprehensive package. 

Please take your time to get to know this site, and try to post constructive comments or at the very least express yourself in a more professional and comprehensive manner than leaving a two line condemnation for something you don't quite grasp.
