Ep. 206 A Flip That Others Missed
My Flipping Life
I walked through a house that had been sitting on the market for 60 days—outdated, overlooked, and priced just high enough to scare off most investors. But I saw potential where others didn’t. In this episode, I’m breaking down how I find profitable flips hiding in plain sight, the red flags that don’t actually mean “no,” and the kinds of properties that are often skipped but have big ROI when you know what to look for.
info_outlineYou know that moment when you realize you're tired of just thinking about flipping houses and actually want to do it? That’s exactly what we’re talking about in this episode. I'm taking you behind the curtain and sharing the mindset shifts, practical steps, and real-deal strategies that helped me go from casually browsing listings to running a full-blown flipping business.
We’re diving into what it really takes to buy your first intentional flip—especially if you’ve been stuck in the planning phase (or stuck scrolling Zillow like it's your job). I’ll walk you through how to start analyzing deals using real numbers (yep, not just guesses), how to prepare for conversations with lenders, and the critical relationships you need to build before you even write your first offer.
If you’ve been sitting on the sidelines waiting for the “perfect” time or thinking you need to know everything before you start, this episode is your permission slip to stop overthinking and start moving. Because spoiler alert: you’ll never be 100% ready, and you don’t need to be.
