Flipping older dilapidated homes...
Are properties like this too far gone to consider viable for flipping. I know of several areas across my state that are growing rapidly on the residential side and little houses like this are now surrounded by large upscale neighborhoods...some better then this house in the pic but still pretty bad...I obviously have no experience flipping...but I've wholesaled 2 properties...that where pretty turnkey though...I've got a person who said they would sell a house like this to me..."just make me an offer, he says"...old family place they where gonna just let fall to the ground scenario...

Only if the location is good. That house is a tear down.
