Flipping America 625, Creative Deal Structures with Wendy Patton

When you understand the possibilities with creative deal structures, you’ll be able to present multiple options to sellers and greatly increase your chances of getting a deal done. Wendy Patton is joining us today. At the age of 21, Wendy started investing in real estate. Like most young adults she was single, broke, thinking “Corporate America” was her only future.

Flipping America 619, Slow Flips with Scott Jelinek
Flipping America
In the end it’s all about cash flow. Flipping is a business that requires your time and presence. Landlording comes with its own set of challenges. How about something that provides cash flow from real estate, but is truly mailbox money? Since 2019 I have been buying super inexpensive houses that need a little work and selling them as-is with seller financing. I’m talking about buying for around $10,000 and selling for $40,000. This model was the rationale for forming the Flipping America Buyers Club. By 2022, with no bank foreclosures for 2 years due to the pandemic, inventory was running...

Flipping America 617 100% Flip Funding
Flipping America
I did my first 500 flips without using a penny of my own money. Today our guest is offering to do the same for you. From day one in my real estate career, I had someone else putting up the capital while I did all the work. We split the profit 50/50. This worked great for both sides and the method still works today. It requires the right kind of match because you will be partners in the project, but this one factor could help many of you jump start your career. Adam Zach is joining us in a few moments to talk about how he wants to help you fund your next fix and flip.
info_outlineIt’s hard to find an opportunity to talk about anything OTHER than the pandemic right now. This week we begin mentally taking control of our destinies by making a conscious choice to move forward while taking every precaution recommended by local state and federal authorities. We will make progress mentally, virtually, and this will translate soon to real life.
Thursday night we did a second call in our series on real estate investing during a pandemic. Our guest panel was Jeff Holst, Darlene Coquerel, and Michael Green, three prolific investors and mentors with a high volume of flips and rental properties between them. We discussed a number of questions facing landlords and house flippers and dug in to find ways we can continue to make a living in real estate during these challenging times.

Your Questions: Send emails to [email protected]
- Wanda, Villages of Ocala, FL “Our rentals have been doing very well but we are concerned that during the pandemic our income may completely dry up. How are you handling this in your business? What can we do?”
- Martin, Alexandria, VA, “Our fixing and flipping business has been running on all cylinders this year and we really haven’t seen any slowing yet, but I’m growing concerned about the short-term future. I have six properties with hard money loans right now and if I can’t get the work done on them, I’ll be out of business. I’d appreciate your thoughts.”
- Fabriana, PIttsburg, PA “I’m struggling to get crews to show up and city inspectors to come to the job site. Everyone is overwhelmed, but so am I. If I can’t finish my two properties I will lose everything.”
- Carissa, Milwaukee, WI “I’ve been on the phone with my tenants and although I have a friendly relationship with all of them, a couple of them have said some pretty rough things to me. Accusing me of greed, exploitation, one even called me a corrupt b---. I don’t want to get into arguments with them - that seems pointless, but I also don’t want to just take it. How do you handle this?”
