Learn the Secrets of a Successful Flipper
and make money with your very first flip! Yes, you *CAN* make money flipping houses, once you know how! Dear Friend,
If you're interested in flipping houses on a full or part-time basis and you want to start with your feet planted firmly on the ground and your eyes wide open, then this is the most important letter you'll ever read.
Let me tell you why...
I've just released a brand new e-Book called "Make Money Flipping Houses: A Complete Guide". In it, I will show you step-by-step how to buy a house, renovate it (if necessary) and sell it at a profit! And here's the good news... By learning from my experience, you can prevent the common mistakes most new flippers make! This is excellent news for you, as you will save time and money and greatly reduce your risk by taking advantage of all the experience I've gained over the years! You now have a chance to learn everything I learned the hard way about flipping houses successfully and really make money at it. I'll show you what you need to know before you invest one dime in a house to flip. And THAT'S a promise! Even though one of the best ways to invest in real estate is to buy houses for flipping, houses are expensive. That makes flipping expensive. It is very capital intensive and you DON'T want to take it casually whether you are using your own money or someone else's.
Flipping could be one of the most expensive investments or business ventures of your life. It could also be one of the most rewarding undertakings of your life. And whether it is a successful venture or a disaster will depend largely on you.
Yes, it is possible to gain financial independence by flipping. However, many people won't. In fact some will lose money, ruin their credit standing, and possibly lose the house in foreclosure. Don't let this happen to you!
Many people find a house to buy but have no idea if it is a good deal or not. They also don't know what they need to do to rehab it and most of all they do not know how to project the costs.
You can avoid the pitfalls mentioned above by following the simple instructions in my book. I will share with you all the costs - obvious and not-so-obvious - that you need to determine to get to the true profit potential of any flip. Not only will I share them with you, I'll provide you with forms to make the evaluation easy! Here's just a few of the benefits of flipping houses: - Potential for financial freedom: There are few other businesses or investments that can take so little of your OWN money to start up (depending on your financing), and where the return in profit is so high.
- Make your own hours
- Be your own boss: While I don't recommend that you quit your job right away, you could in the future.
- Control your future
- Be substantially rewarded for your efforts
- Improve your life style
- Quickly increase your income: Three to six months could bring you $10's of thousands of dollars of profit. Think what you could do with this money!
"Make Money Flipping Houses -- A Complete Guide" will teach you techniques for handling all aspects of a flip. These will prove profitable whether you are looking at flipping full-time or as an addition to your existing job. Think of it as a complete course for people who want a proven way to earn more income. Where else could you get all that for under $50?
While this book was written with potential and relatively new flippers in mind, even the experienced flipper will gain something from it. Learn insider tips on how to flip houses
with advice such as: - How to determine "hard" and "soft" costs. There is so much more to know than just the purchase price and cost of renovations if you are to make money and not lose it. Additionally, I will provide you with other information you need to compile in order to make a good decision on whether or not a house is "worth" flipping.
- Differences between financing options. How to determine what option will work the best for you on any given flip. (It may not always be the same).
- Dealing with general and sub-contractors. Do you or don't you use them? And how to handle them when you do! I'll also share with you how my not having this knowledge cost me $1500. That is an expensive lesson on one item!
- When to get a permit and when you don't have to! What can happen if you don't get a permit when you need one?
- What gives you the biggest bang for the buck in renovations and repairs?
- How to calculate and minimize your risk: if you follow the steps that I reveal to you, I can almost guarantee you that you'll be earning thousands of dollars (or even tens of thousands) within a few months. Little in life is guaranteed. And you generally won't succeed without taking some risk. The key is in minimizing that risk. Let me help you do this.
- How a "fluff job" can get you profits easier and quicker.
- Get a professional looking landscape plan, for free!
- Is color important? See before & after photos of a property and understand why I was able to buy it at a good price -- and could sell it at an even better one!
- Easy upgrades that really make a difference!
This is just the beginning of what you'll learn in this easy-to-follow e-Book. I've covered every aspect of flipping houses from start to finish, and have laid out the process in an easy-to-follow manner. Just follow my steps and you'll be starting on the road to flipping, with 20 years of experience at your back! Important: this eBook is NOT a lot of things. - It is NOT a method of slapping together a poor-quality product in few days or a week (this method is NOT recommended if you want to maintain credibility in this field).
- It is NOT for those who aren't willing to put some time and effort into creating a superior product (I will show you how to do this regardless of the price of the house you are working on). Additionally, I will provide you with the information you need to compile in order to make a good decision on whether or not a house is "worth" flipping. By investing some effort learning what you need to know BEFORE you start flipping, you will see a return on your investment over and over and over again. Best of all, you'll avoid the mistake that many people make: such as focusing on what they think the house will sell for and the profit they will make without calculating everything.
- It is NOT just another hasty compilation of recycled articles disguised as information with a bunch of affiliate links. I don't work that way. Instead, it's a real learning tool (over 60 pages of information and money making tips), packed with real, feasible, practical advice that you can start using right away. Even someone who has successfully done a rehab will learn something useful.
Someone (I wish I knew who!) once said,
"You are only as powerful as your Mentors".
Let ME be one of your mentors. When I need advice, I frequently call some of my mentors (friends in the real estate business and experts in various areas of real estate investing from whom I have taken thousands of dollars of seminars). In this business as well as in life you will continually be offered the opportunity to learn. It is a lot cheaper to learn from others than to learn from your mistakes. You will still make mistakes - however they should not be catastrophic or frequent.
You'll be guided through each step as I show you exactly how it's done, from evaluating the market, to identifying all the costs you must consider, to renovating and remodeling, to putting your flipper on the market. I didn't leave any part of the process out! How Not to Flip a House!! Recently, I saw a show on flipping houses with two brothers. They rehabbed the house, had a realtor come in to see what could sell it for and had a projected profit of $84,000. Wow!! That would have been a great flip!!
After a commercial break, they interviewed one of the brothers after they had sold the house. He said they only made $7,000 ($3,500 each) for all their time, risk and effort.
Where did $77,000 go?
If they had had to hold the house another month or two, they would have lost money!
In my book, I'll tell you what happened and most importantly how to avoid their mistake.
You'll also learn the top-notch marketing techniques and options that I personally use to sell my flips. There is no reason you shouldn't be able to do the same. Here's just some of the tips, tricks
& tactics you'll discover: - Forms and calculations to estimate projected expenses. Although it's what many people think, it's much more than just the purchase price and renovations.
- Where to start to have a successful flip.
- How to determine if you are buying the right house at the right price.
- The best methods for estimating your repair costs.
- Some insider secrets regarding what to repair when.

..and this is just the beginning. You'll learn how to create money - create equity without waiting for inflation.
You can become financially secure by flipping houses if you follow the steps that I carefully outline for you. I haven't left anything to chance, because I want you to succeed.
I'm sharing with you methods and skills that have taken me years to learn, and that I wish others had taught me when I was starting out. Tips that I learned through hard research, as well as trial and error, finding out what really works, and what doesn't.
