Welcome Ernest! I'm a newbie flipper in Indy. Just finished my first flip. If you need help with contracting costs or contractors feel free to message me and we can connect. Also, there is a REIA meeting tomorrow evening in Indy and I'll be there. Good luck!

@Brandi Graham Don’t do it. Just learn and network with everyone on BP. If you have a question someone will answer it for you. When you feel semi-ready just dive in and you will learn first hand from your mistakes and successes. Remember “a deal a day keeps the fear away”

Post: Flipping Permit Questions

Hi BP Members! 

I jumped in rather quickly and bought a fixer upper a few months ago. Didn’t really understand anything about permits, except to get one for the dumpster on the road. I’ve pretty much fixed everything up already;  the roof, new walls, new electric, and HVAC. The inspector called and met me, telling me I need a structural permit and now learning I need a million other permits. I’m lost on what to do. Do I file these permits even though the home repairs are already completed? Thanks for your help in advance.

@Lei L. I think your best bet is to get an inspector out there before you buy. And then bring a contractor down there to price out what you’re looking for.

@Daniel Kent

I literally just did the same thing two days ago. An addendum was made for the inspection, just in case something major was wrong like foundation or busted pipes.

Thank you! Yes it’s 895 sqft
