21 Year Old Flipper

[Joshua Nichols]

Hi everyone! My name is Joshua. I’m a 21 year old looking to kick start my career in real estate. I’d specifically interested in flipping property.

I’m new to the world of house flipping and excited to learn from all of you. I’m just getting started and looking to soak up as much knowledge as possible—whether it’s about finding good deals, managing renovations, or understanding the financial side of things.

My goal is to build a successful flipping business while keeping family time a top priority. I’d love to hear your tips, lessons learned, or even beginner mistakes to avoid. Looking forward to connecting and learning from this community!

Thanks in advance for your guidance!

Quote from @Jaron Walling:

@Joshua Nichols I'd take @Travis Timmons advise to heart and think about the challenges associated with flipping RE. You're reading a 10 chapter book and tryin to skip the first 4. It's not as easy as the social media gurus preach. 

If you don't own a primary residence I'd start there.

Don't pile on risk at 21 y/o. I'd level up with a BRRRR, live-in flip, or house-hack before jumping into a challenging renovation. Those are opportunities for experienced investor but you're not experienced. Creative financing to buy deals is another dangerous approach. Avoid it until you get the investor ball rolling.

 I have purchased my first home already! I have a mentor i've been shadowing for about a year now as well. I have found my market and have created my team thus far.
