Let's face it--fixing and flipping houses is sexy. Who doesn't love
the idea of buying a rundown, mold-infested shack and transforming
it into someone's dream home for massive profits? Reality TV shows
make it look so easy. A little paint here, some new kitchen
cabinets there, and presto The house is sold for big bucks and
everyone lives happily ever after. If only it were that simple.
Fixing and flipping houses is a business. In order for a business
to survive, prosper, and grow, systems must be put in place. Fixing
and Flipping Real Estate: Strategies for the Post-Boom Era is a
book that breaks down the four essential components of a
fix-and-flip business, giving you the building blocks to
efficiently buy and sell 1 to 20 properties a month in today's
post-boom era housing market. You'll learn about each of the boxes:
* Acquisition--How to find and buy a profitable real estate deal. *
Rehabbing--How to systematically remodel a house and how not to
underimprove, or overimprove, your property. * Sales--How to sell
your flip for the highest possible price in the shortest possible
time.* Raising Capital--How to get the capital you need to grow
your business, including using other people's money, for your real

Nevada, Texas, and Florida, among others. It's also a good bet in
states as diverse as North Carolina and Washington State. And with
