May Start Flipping - Super Newbie

[Erika Whitten]

So my husband and I have talked about starting a family business buying and flipping houses. I work in insurance but other than that, neither of us have any experience in the industry or with construction.

Is it even really possible to jump into this with no prior experience and just learn as we go (about renovations and the whole process, etc)and if so, do you have any stories of a couple that started out like this?

Thanks!!!

I would liken it to swimming. You are going to want to have some basic knowledge of how to doggy paddle at least before you just jump right in. The other option is to have a life raft or in the case of business, a mentor who can help you when needed. It's rare to find the top athletes don't have coaches. Treat your business like a champion and strive for the best outcomes possible.

Good luck in your journey!
