Flipping Houses: 101 Awesome Quick Tips for Success

This morning I discovered something terrible while standing in the shower…

I had forgotten a towel. 

And worse, I was not at my house. I’m spending the week with my fellow host of the BiggerPockets Podcast, Josh Dorkin, and his wonderful family and I couldn’t simply streak through the home to get back to my room.

Soaking wet I looked around at my options. I had just one: a small 6″ towel. Let’s just say it took a while to dry off.

You see, I went in unprepared.  Had I spent a few seconds preparing for the morning, I would not have made this simple mistake.

And you know – real estate investing, and house flipping in general, is kind of the same way. (You were wondering how I was going to tie that in!)  If you go in unprepared, you are going to be scrambling for solutions.

Not a good thing.

Therefore, the following list is going to give you 101 “quick tips” to help you prepare for your next house flip so you don’t make the same mistakes I have!

At the end of the list, I want to encourage you to add your own tips in the comment section and, of course, if you would please do me the honor of sharing this post on your social media, I would be forever grateful!

Let’s get going!
