My short term goals to get started would be to get into the wholesaling side of real estate and earn capital to eventually invest in purchasing properties on my own for renting and also fixing/flipping.

You can fix properties, you can’t fix markets. 

Fix and flip?

It's been about five years and I've never had to replace or fix one, though.For small bathroom windows or kitchen windows I put a cheap tension rod up with some curtains that match the room.

I dont have anything else going on in that area so it doesnt make sense for me to hold it or to fix it up and sell it.

I fixed the issue straight away, there was no real problem.Hope it will continue like this.I read IRS publication 946.

I walk a rental prospect in 15 min and know wht it will take to fix.- If you are financing, say NO FINANCING contingency. 

Not necessarily a deal killer, but you will need to find a commercial lender willing to underwrite you based on global income, experience, etc, and you will not get a 30 year fixed rate mortgage.

But I treat the home as my own, upgrade and fix it up to rent it.

2) how much will the subject property cost me to fix up?
