Feedback about Flip Secrets by Jake Leicht

Rakesh Singh
Posted

Hi,

Need feedback about The Flip Secrets by Jake Leicht. He teaches Flip houses using OPM and fees is between 11K-15K. 

Is it worth joining this Program?

Thanks,

Rakesh

Because I am starting out, I have been self-funding my "gap," which limits the size and scope of the projects I can take on. On the first flip, I didn't follow the "rules" Jake outlined on his calculator and in his course. So when I started the project, my projected profit was just under $15k. When everything was finished, I made just over $2k.

My second Project's anticipated profit is around $30k (I followed the "rules" on this property), compared to an initially projected profit of $35k.

We just started my third project. Profit is projected to be $20k, but I also learned how to qualify better.

Yesterday, we reviewed a profit that my realtor was touting as having a potential of $100k; when I did my own numbers, I came up closer to $40k if it can sell. However, there isn't a strong sales history, so we are going to pass on it.

I have another deal lined up that I plan on purchasing in the next few days. The neighborhood has a strong sales history, and I should be able to gross $38k.

No school or class will replace the value of getting started and learning your trade. The Flip Secret gave me the confidence and motivation to go. As I make my mistakes, I understand why Jake teaches "rules." But I also understand that no one will ever be able to tell you 100% what your experience will be.
