Flipping Properties or Assignments
|
Flipping properties is a great way to make some money in the
short term. The goal of the exercise is to find a property that
you can get for less than what you can sell it for. It is important
to know what the property is worth because you are going to sell
it right away. A property can be found on your own or through
a scout. In fact, if you are just starting out you can become
a scout, looking for properties for more experienced investors,
and collecting a commission for every property they buy. If you
are getting properties from scouts or finding them yourself, you
can buy them, do some cleaning and some freshening and sell them
for a higher price. Generally the higher price is obtained by
selling to an end customer.
Here is a Excel spreadsheet to see if you can make money at a
