So here’s my situation..I am about to graduate college and will be working in my field full time in order to be approved for a mortgage and financing to pay for renovations for my first flip.

I'm definitely nervous but excited to meet my goal this year of getting at least 1 flip this year.

Flipping in any major city requires a lot of money. in Boston you at 500k to get into a condo. then 1 million for house or multi if your lucky!

If you are actively flipping that makes you self-employed and eligible for this vehicle. 

I came across real estate after continuously seeing a real estate business in my local Houston neighborhood purchasing old, dingy homes and flipping them into something beautiful. 

I’m interested in doing my first flip here in Houston Texas.

I am doing direct mail in search of properties to flip and/or hold as rentals.

I have been wanting to start doing some flips as well as acquiring rental properties and I have been doing a lot of research first.

In general, how have you contacted home owners in the past for wholesale or flip opportunities? 

It has taken me almost two years to have my first flip on the market. 1.5 years of that was just me reading, listening, and watching to make sure I had the deepest understanding I could sans-experience.
