Hey everybody, I am new to real estate investing and have decided to get into flipping houses. I have a financial background, good understanding of how flipping works, my flipping team is coming together and I see a lot of potential in the San Antonio markets. The area I am running into issues is the design and creativity needed to successfully flip. Dollar for dollar I understand that you actually lose money when you renovate a house so the real profit comes from being able to step into the potential buyers shoes and create a unique and comfortable living experience. I am good with numbers and finding houses but I have never been an overly creative person and I am struggling when it comes to putting the interior and exterior of a flip together in a way that has the flow, comfort and experience needed to create a profit. I am planning on spending a lot of time at home improvement stores in my area but outside of doing this or hiring somebody to help me design a flip house is there anything else I can do that would prevent overspending? I know a lot of flippers aren't designers themselves but I look at their work and I don't understand how they came up with their ideas. Any help, recommendations or advice is greatly appreciated!
