Find a Top Real Estate Agent Near You
How can someone become a house flipper?
Do I need to have licenses? What are the requirements besides needing money? Are there specific realtors for house flippers? Are there classes to take? Where can I find other people wanting to do the same thing?

Great Questions! TO flip homes, you do not have to have a Real Estate License, unless you are selling it for another party. Question 2. I work with several investors that are starting out. First you would want the capital or finance through a lender that provides a loan for your venture. QUESTION 3: YES YES YES, I love working with investors and walking them through every step. I have represented over 40 homes for my clients. PLEASE NOTE: Not all Realtors are familiar with all the steps to help home investors that are flipping for Buy and Sell or Buy and Hold. QUESTION 4: There are several online courses. I love Pace Morby and Bigger Pockets. They are chaulked full of information and very helpful for beginners.

First, I would only recommend this path if you will be doing the work yourself or you will be running your own crew. Also, you should buy a house for yourself first, before thinking of investing. If both of them apply, feel free to reach out and I will put you in touch with investors we work with.

When should I buy an investment property?
My husband and I have always wanted to have a rental property, but we're scared to pull the trigger. We don't want to stretch ourselves too much financially and get stuck. But we also know that all investments carry some risk. Do you have any advice? At what point should we feel confident with our purchase?
