I also have friends that are licensed agents and flip properties that do great.

I moved to Florida in 2017 and have been involved in 45+ flips and currently manage over 36 units throughout Tampa Bay.

Hard money is mostly for flipping properties or using it as a bridge money for a temporary solution if you need more time depending on what type of trouble you get yourself into.

I've flipped 3 houses & have a rental property.

They have seem my flips and know my business in some ways and are now starting to get more and more interested.Our 2025 plan, for the first time, is to have two family meetings a year where I go through all of our real estate, stocks, cash, and any other assets and explain to them how each one makes money.

I am looking to either buy land or a tax acquired property to fix and flip for my first deal.

By gaining insight into the investor’s goals—whether it’s flipping properties, acquiring rental units, or developing new constructions—the broker can tailor their approach and identify the most suitable lending options.Once the broker comprehends the investor's needs, they leverage their extensive network of private lenders.

I think if you realistically have enough deal flow of good properties, flipping is a faster way to a huge bank account, since a good flip should be between 30-50% return on investment every 4-6 months, if you are doing it all cash.  

Has every market (by city or by zip) in SoCal, which is where we fix & flip & build rentals.I'd recommend more drilled-down market stats like the bottom graph for validating your underwritings and making go-no go decisions, but it's still interesting to visualize & pick-out those super-performant markets.To be fair, I haven't seen something like this either, that's why I built it!

Real estate investments (STRs, MTRs, live in flips) have produced my best returns by a good margin.
