Also if any of you agents (not from around here of course )can give me any tips for launching out of the gate -  Tips - tricks & things you found to bump up your business.

Maybe I can share a tip or two to help set you up for a successful transition into "retirement."

Great tips you guys.

Really just looking for any tips from experienced flippers to add to my mental notebook!

@Evelina NeufeldOne tip I would ask that few often  ask is " How do you come up with that price".

But since she just sent $70,000 to the current mortgage, she lacks the down (seasoned) money for a new mortgage for a home we stumbled across.I know gifting 70,000 to her is OK for a new mortgage (from husband and over 20% down), but can I pull that $70,000 off a Line of Credit I have on a commercial building which is not in her name?

I'm on track with those tips so far regarding criteria and financing. 

If you have any tips as to where to look and find a good deal for an owner occupier, I'm all ears!

Thanks for all the tips guys...

I also plan to train a VA to find and communicate with contractors and/or handymen in the future, in other words make phone calls for me.But whatever you use a VA for, if it's repetitive computer work, here are some tips I learned from experience: I recommend that you do a few steps yourself and take a video of it while you're doing it using a screen capture program such as Simple Screen Recorder.
