A real estate agent will have access to the multiple listing service (MLS), which gives you a list of low-cost properties, such as foreclosures and short sales.Find your target marketTo find a potential house to flip, one of your first moves is to find your target market.

Long term rentals have the least amount of interaction required, but short term rentals (AirBnB, etc) have higher profit margins - but require a lot more attention (some companies charge 30% for management and the daily turnover service, for instance).I would suggest you compare your potential rates of return from real estate with other investment vehicles.
