Is it a bad time to fix and flip do to the virus?

[Austin Fry]

I’m stationed near Seattle and I’m finally ready for my first fix and flip deal. Now that the virus outrage is happening.. I’m second guessing myself and thinking I should wait. Any thoughts?

I'd be very selective - I do believe that there is never a bad time to buy a good deal, but I personally feel far better about Buy-and-holds than Fix-and-flips right now. Buyers are adopting a "wait and see" mindset, so you may find the market softening significantly, with many buyers postponing their home search by the time you finish your flip and list it.
