How to go about flipping a house?

Cynthia B.
Posted

Hello,  I have zero experience with this. I did buy a house in 2018 for 260K , put in 30K in renovations (new tubs, new tiles in bathrooms, paint, new shower doors, new cabinets/countertops both in the kitchen and bathrooms). I'm hoping to sell it next year for 360-370K.  Do you think that should be possible ?

Then, with the profit I intend to buy another house, but for less than 260.  Maybe in the 200-220K range, and do a renovation and flip. But I'm not at all sure how I would proceed.

I know a house inspection is needed. What kind of insurance would be good to get ? It doesn't have to be landlord insurance, I assume.

Do I just get some quotes from multiple contractors? Problem is I'm not very design savvy ( I had help with my other house that I won't have now).

Just some tips , websites etc that could be of help. I'm in florida , gainesville if it makes a difference.


Thanks ! :)
