The 8-step, flip-first framework behind Fix & Flip Like a PRO One-line promise: The only 8-step roadmap you need to find, flip, and exit profitably—then reinvest with discipline to build long-term wealth.
Buy smart, not cute. Identify undervalued homes in rising micro-markets, comp the ARV accurately, and run repairs with a strict max-offer rule so margin remains after holding and selling costs.
Create value where the market pays: kitchens, baths, safety/structure, curb appeal. Scope work, bid competitively, and choose finishes that sell fast—not just “pretty.” Budget 10–15% contingency to protect timeline and profit.
Be the GC of your profit. Inspect what you expect, track every dollar, and hold the schedule. A one-page dashboard for spend vs. plan and a simple Gantt keep projects on time and cash-positive.
Price to move, stage to win, and market with magazine-grade photos. Host strong opens, prep a What’s New feature sheet, and pick the best offer on price + terms to exit cleanly and quickly.
Plan for the “what-ifs.” Backup exits (rent/refi), builder’s-risk coverage, vetted trades with backups, and conservative ARV/hold assumptions keep surprises from sinking margins—and your stress low.
Reinvest profits with discipline, add OPM prudently, and standardize finishes/process to run parallel rehabs. Build a bench so you work on the business, not just in it.
Level up with pattern recognition. Review wins/misses, study real deals (yours + others), and refine underwriting, scope, and exit strategy as markets shift. Iteration compounds speed and profit.
Flip income is a spark, not the finish line. Allocate to taxes, reserves, and assets (rentals, index funds). Systematic reinvestment turns active flips into durable, compounding net worth.
