And most importantly trust your own gut and get some education under your belt from somebody who’s actually doing it even if you have to pay for it.

For the past 1-2 years we have worked on educating ourselves by using the resources that BP makes available (I even made it on Real Estate Rookie Podcast #14!).

@Jeremy LambOther skills to learn or educate yourself would be in construction and appraisal since you plan on flipping.
