It starts with a visual inspection and confirmation/denial. 

If you can sketch out your ideas, it might help you visualize everything better.Good luck with everything!

The BP podcasts definitely helped me to visualize the kind of scenario that unfolded.

I am waiting on my wegolook visual assessment of the property to make sure it is still standing/occupied etc.

There are basically only 2 methods to buy real estate at bargain prices:Method #1Situations where you are the only potential buyer who knows about the deal (no competition), and the seller is willing to accept your offer and terms without seeking outside bids (offers) from anyone else.Method #2Where the public knows about a property that’s available but cannot visualize its potential value – like after it’s all fixed up.

I’ve purchased an online course but I’m a visual learner and was hoping one of you could help me out.

I would avoid turnkey companies who cant give direct answers, won't allow you to visually inspect properties personally, won't allow for a 3rd party inspector to come in, and those who are slow to respond.

Others say a visual inspection is sufficient, unless there's a reason to drill, and charge between $500 - $1K per inspection.

I'm a bit more visual and personally appreciate a more minimalistic approach to presenting data and information.

Bigger Pockets Youtube channel is great to get a visual when learning some of the basics (analyzing deals etc), but also the BP podcats obviously.I also like "cash flow ninja" podcast, and "lifetime cashflow with real estate" by rod klief.
