Is flipping a few foreclosed homes a good start if I would like to purchase a rental later?
Hello Everyone,
I am new to BP and very eager to jump start my journey into real estate. I've been doing my research and trying to learn as much as possible. Recently, I came across a foreclosed home that I'm looking to flip. The problem is, I really don't know how to go about getting financing or the steps of should take. (I just purchased the book Investing in Real Estate with Low or No Money Down.)
I would love to for anyone to shed some light on the process and what steps I should take and things to consider before I begin.
Ideally, I would like to flip a few homes and recycle the proceeds to purchase a rental property.
Please, any advice or suggestions you may have are all absolutely welcome.
