for a first flip, you should not get in on something that has led paint and sagging floors. get something that needs cosmetic work. otherwise, you will lose big money.if you dont know what things cost and how much cash it would take to make it work, you are not ready for a big flip/rehab. get an easy one first to get your feet wet.
