Hi,
As a buyer to purchase a home and then sell it what are the following:
1. Costs associated to purchase the property?
2. Costs to sell the property after I've done my renovations?
Much appreciated from a rookie investor!

Impossible to answer that as costs can vary dramatically depending on price points, area, and items you do or don't select to have.
In CA, I typically experience approx 1.25% of sales price for closing costs on exit (not counting agent commissions which are 5%).
On purchase, it will also depend on what you negotiate the seller today for, if you intend to flip, you should always choose to purchase a title binder to save title costs on exit.
