Want to know how to flip a house in 2024? We brought on a rookie with a real-life deal to walk through every beginner step of flipping houses so you can go out and make money, too! We know Rene Hosman as our community manager here at BiggerPockets, but she’s also a brand new house flipper! She just got her first house flip under contract, so we’ll be bringing her on the show to share her progress and teach YOU how to do it today.
In part one, Rene describes how she found this deal in the pricey and competitive Denver, Colorado, area. Next, when she wanted to make an offer on the property, she realized it HAD to be made in cash, but she didn’t have the funds. What did she do? She found a lender who lent her the money in just around twenty-four hours! Don’t think it’s possible? Rene shares exactly how she found this lender, how much they charge, and why she went with them.
Next, how do you estimate rehab costs for a home renovation? Rene brings her ACTUAL house flipping budget to show off in today’s episode, plus where she’s finding materials and how much of a financial “buffer” she’s giving herself (in case something goes wrong).
