It has been profitable for us but competition has risen in recent years so we continually work to refresh our places and marketing approaches.

Many are buying properties, doing minimal renovations to keep their crews busy, and selling with small or zero profit margins.Cash buyers are a priority.

@Brad Tullif you're buying entirely with borrowed money it will be extremely difficult to be profitable even in the long term. 

Yes this leaves more money in the deal but it reduces my risk and ensures I can remain profitable in a down market. 

With your boots-on-the-ground approach, you’re in a strong position to find profitable flips.

I think late 2023 was supposed to be the first year we saw profit. 

Maybe partner up with a local flipper on the renovation, split the profits after the sell and move on.
