Chris Magistrado Are these numbers in The House Flipping Framework book correct?
12 February 2025 | 3 replies
Here is the statement expanded to include formulas for doing one flip per year, two flips per year, five flips per year, and ten flips per year: One flip per year: If you start with $50,000 and do one flip per year, aiming for a 35 percent return, your progress would be: Year 1: $50,000 + (35% × $50,000) = $67,500 Year 2: $67,500 + (35% × $67,500) = $91,125 Year 3: $91,125 + (35% × $91,125) = $123,019Two flips per year: If you start with $50,000 and do two flips per year, aiming for a 35% return on each, your progress would be: Year 1: $50,000 + (0.7 × $50,000) = $85,000 Year 2: $85,000 + (0.7 × $85,000) = $144,500 Year 3: $144,500 + (0.7 × $144,500) = $245,650Five flips per year: If you start with $50,000 and do five flips per year, aiming for a 35% return on each, your progress would be: Year 1: $50,000 + (1.75 × $50,000) = $137,500 Year 2: $137,500 + (1.75 × $137,500) = $378,125 Year 3: $378,125 + (1.75 × $378,125) = $1,039,844Ten flips per year: If you start with $50,000 and do ten flips per year, aiming for a 35% return on each, your progress would be: Year 1: $50,000 + (3.5 × $50,000) = $225,000 Year 2: $225,000 + (3.5 × $225,000) = $787,500 Year 3: $787,500 + (3.5 × $787,500) = $2,756,250The key points remain the same, which is to aim for a high return through flipping, reinvest the profits to compound the gains, and be disciplined in order to build significant wealth over just a few years of this real estate investing strategy.
