As others have vocalized here, I think Bigger Pockets all in all is going to be just as good if not better help than the Texas REIA, not to say I won't listen to the market updates, but Phil reminds me too much of the slimy real estate agent from the movie American Beauty hahahaha.Thanks again for reaching out!

And I can't make any rhyme or reason of what the right formula looks like. know an interior designer who just flipped his gorgeous 2500-ish sqft NE portland home for 1.5million. don't know what he put into it. it's a beautiful home, but was surprised he got so much for it, since it was a smaller home and half the square footage was in the basement! 

Have gone for eviction but meanwhile the place is attracting the wrong crowd so even beautifully renovated units can't be leased out (the units are broken in all the time).Need a property manager who will tackle this head on, and fast! 

Purchase price: $410,000 This 2nd row 2 story duplex style home located just 100 steps from Beach and beautiful knotty pine walls, ceilings, and kitchen cabinets.

Good luck to you and welcome to Bigger Pockets, and the beautiful state of NH.

It seems that in such a beautiful place, there should be no problem with renting it throughout the year, although as Jeremy Baker mentions, there are the high and low seasons.

The exterior of the property is beautifully landscaped and features a large, fully landscaped backyard that is perfect for outdoor living.

A "successful" flip is subjective -- beauty is in the eye of the beholder -- I would assert that any business endeavor is successful when you exceed 20% cash-on-cash return. 10% would be adequate. 5% would mean you barely scraped by.

I learned from this one, to raise the damage protection policy amount I required on VRBO. 2) Then there was that time someone stole someone else's wallet, booked a beautiful historic house on a stolen credit card, got high and/or angry, and trashed it out.

Almost made me sick after the blood sweat and tears I put into making his place look absolutely beautiful prior to his move-in.
