Research and then research some more.  In my opinion, some formal training/mentoring helps, but "buyer beware."  There are many people/groups selling investor training - it is probably the largest profit generating piece of the business.  Haven't you ever wondered why there are so many real estate investment ads on TV - lots of money of course?  

You can find a lot of what you need on-line through google searches, and this web site.  After you feel you are comfortable with the basics, a  mentor training program of some sort may be what you need to kick start your business.  Prices vary wildly - education salespeople will try to make as much profit as possible.  Do your homework!

Insurance premiums are always a factor if buying/holding - I always use www.floodsmart.gov to gauge the flood risk/cost.  If planning to sell, many buyers on the "retail" market will avoid houses that have been flooded and it is disclosed on a Sellers Disclosure (TREC Form).

The real upside for investors when buying MLS properties through a realtor is the bank/sellers pay the realtor commission!

Texas requires a buyer agent and a seller agent to ensure the client's best interest.  If you do not have an buyer's agent a third party is appointed to represent you  and to provide advice at a nominal cost.

Otherwise the seller's agent only would have the sellers best interest in mind.  Seller's agents love it when buyers do not have their own agent - then more of the commission goes to them.
