Home Flipping Tips From A Pro

Do you want home flipping tips from a pro? There’s a cool interview published in Atlanta Jewish Times that gives flipping tips from pro home flipper Robyn Anshell. She is from Atlanta’s Flipchic and she started out as a real estate agent. For the last two decades though, she’s been a professional house flipper. She says that the best first step is to compare the comps in the neighborhood you’re looking at. Don’t simply rely on Zestimates to know what a home you are going to purchase to flip for a profit is worth. Its value is meaningless if its not real-world applicable. She also gives the basic advice of checking for structural issues. That’s the biggest thing to look out for, because it’s the most important things in a property.

This is pretty standard advice. She also gave another piece of advice though. Check out what she said:

“It’s been lucrative to sometimes sell and even trade properties with other flippers. Sometimes I find properties through Multiple Listing Services, where agents go online to enter their listing and other agents can sell their properties. Sometimes, though, I get business by giving out cards to prospective clients that say I’ll buy their house for cash. I almost always buy with cash because it typically guarantees a quick close. I’ve also learned to rein myself in. Don’t overdo the renovations to the point that it’s no longer profitable. Use design materials that appeal to the general public, and try to avoid too much of a custom look. Flipping houses can be difficult at first, but profit is out there to be made.”
