First Flip Experience

Hello BP members,  I have learned so much from reading here-Thanks to all who post & share!!!

I completed my first flip and sold in Dec last year, approx 30% profit, held for exactly 1 year due to 2 deals falling through days before closing. So frustrated realtors tied it up for more than 4 months! I ended up using Buyers Agent. There were many mistakes I made but learned what to and not to do next time. A couple pics here, sorry so big not going to bore you with all, 3/2 1500 SF. I enjoy taking pics before and after, staging and posting ads as well. In 2015 sold my condo 1st week on Zillow full asking price for $182K. Low inventory and rising prices is challenging this year.

 Best to all here, keep sharing as it inspires other while being a great learning resource.

Good day!

Jen
