Fix and Flipper Newbies
My husband and I are looking at fix and flips in Ventura County and would love to hear from any investors around that area to hear about what kind of experiences or tips they have for us.

Colorado right now is an extremely hot commodity now and it is difficult to find good cheap projects. If I wanted to spend $300k plus to tear down and build a $1.5 million house which is what's happening in Denver Metro and south that would be fine. For our first project I'm looking for something on a much smaller scale. As the husband is a contractor winter was always our difficult working season, with a project in a sunny place it gives him winter revenue. Right now it's an information gathering expedition. We may end up in Texas or Arizona for a Fix and Flip. Who knows!
