Maybe start in my comments haha

Should I stick with my partners for the initial flips or go the hard money route?

That's not even the tip of the iceberg; it's so far away.

If you have every lived or have family you are visiting anywhere in the Midwest, that's where I would start.  

Let's use an example of replacing a leaking kitchen faucet (assuming it can't be repaired):You can easily find out how much the materials are by going to the Home Depot website and picking one out.For labor we Googled, "How long does it take to replace a kitchen faucet" and this is the answer we got:AI Overview: Replacing a kitchen faucet can take 30 minutes to several hours, depending on the faucet's complexity and whether you're doing it yourself.

I found this out after several victims skipped traced me and called me at my real phone number.A search of the scammer’s phone number indicated it was used on other fake websites to falsely represent other legit lenders, as well.

If anyone in the forum is interested, send me  DM, I'd post it here just not sure if BP will allow it.I visited and like everyone felt in love with the country.

Searching through the forums is like my second google, ha!

There are a lot of websites that offer the course online, or if you have a college near you, they also typically offer a class that satisfies the pre-licensing requirement.

A good ol fashion phone call or house visit would probably solve your problem.
