To one sitting on the outside looking in, it seems flipping houses for a living is nothing more than an illusion. Nothing more than a television show giving you before and after photos of properties that have been renovated.
However, for some, the dream to flip houses full time has become a real life scenario. And to these few, they understand that there's more to flipping homes than just fixing up the property to resell. For those that are successful, there are three steps to making the business work for you.
1. Finding Motivated Sellers.
Be sure not to confuse leads with deals. Constantly promote your business to get more leads into your funnel. This is where it all starts for real estate investors that want to flip their way to wealth.
Stay on the lookout for motivated sellers and potential properties. Take this first step and start marketing your business in an attempt to find and attract motivated seller leads.
2. Deal Converting.
After you've began marketing your business, you'll see leads began to come to you! And now, you'll need to pre-qualify these leads to make sure it's worth your time to pursue. Make sure the seller has motivation - in other words a real reason to sell, not just because they want to.
3. Sell the deal.
This should be what you think of before ever presenting the offer. Although, this is the last piece of the puzzle, you should began the entire process with the end in mind - how you plan to get out of the deal and get paid?
Here are some options to consider selling your deal:
a. Do you plan to flip the property fast to another investor that will buy the property to fix up, and then resell to a homeowner?
b. Do you plan to flip the deal to a landlord/ investor that buys property for the long term?
c. Do you have any established relationship with any other investors that would be interested in the deal?
Your success largely depends on how quick you move the property. Therefore, work to build solid relationships with real estate buyers in your area because these will be reoccurring buyers of your properties.
Negotiate a good enough deal so that you can leave some money on the table for your buyer. Investors don't care if you make a profit as long as the deal makes sense for them.
