We have recently decided to sell our home and move into a flip property we rehabbed.

Joe I see this as highly regional.. when we were flipping in Dallas almost all appraisals came in low and we had to negotiate.. it was frustrating and since the homes were FHA buyers they no had any more money to make up the delta.. and with the uber high tax's there you just have to let them go and make less or break even on the flip.. we just were not efficient enough to compete there.In Oregon and Charleston were we do true NEW construction for retail in the 450 to 2 million price points.. we have not had one appraisal come in low.. they come in at our sales number.. and this last community we built.. the exact same house we built the year before on the same size lots we sold for 75k more.. and they still appraised.. that's good appraisers keeping up with rising markets.. in Texas it was not that way the appraiser were not tracking the rising market like they should have.For the average homeowner to use this strategy could lead to some frustration of making offers paying for inspections and appraisals and then trying to negotiate down only to have a sale fail and be out 1k or more and the time involved..

There's wholesaling, fix n' flip, foreclosures, house hacking, multi-family.... the list goes on.

I'm investing in SFH flips and long term multifamily properties throughout the tri-county area.

I understand this strategy isn't for everyone, so if that isn't an option the live-in flip method is also a good way to build up some more cash for investments.

On the flip side, qualifying for conventional loan would get tougher with rising rates and cash flowing might be tough if rents doesn't rise enough to negate the increase in interest rates.Want to know what others are thinking.Thanks,Steve

Hello, my name is Diego. I am barely starting my real state journey and I'm still looking for good deals. I found a potential deal that consists of the following: two 2 bed 1 bath single family houses on the same lot,...

I focus mainly on fix and flip type deals, but do a small amount of wholesaling also in addition to some new construction and buy and hold.

I definitely want to begin with rental property and move forward with flipping. 

I am looking for active flippers in the tampa bay area, i have never really done a flip, but through owning my current rentals over the years i have pretty much touched repairing every part of a house.
