Flip Houses With No Money (From an 8-Figure House Flipper)

[@TransformRealEstate]

My book, Flipping Houses QuickStart Guide, is available on Amazon (amazon.com/dp/1636100309/?tag...)! As a house flipper of 5 years, I've flipped almost 50 houses with a six-figure profit on average. I'm so excited to share with you all the knowledge and experiences I've gained so far. I hope to help you get out of the rat race and achieve financial freedom like I did. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Check out the House Flipping for Beginners Playlist: kzbin.info/aero/PLth4sDjOXnLXR2wUFLQkwd67Wuxx9lKRG

Dear Elisa, your videos are amazingly helpful but sometimes related videos are too difficult to find. For example you mentioned the vid on how to find like-minded people but where is it? Could you kindly list all the videos you mention in the description? Thanks!

[@msmichelletoliver651]

Can you mention where you get your capital from which hard money lender & how you find your houses?

[@rosesarered3904]

I have renovated two homes, sold one at the highest price in the neighborhood, kept the other one because I loved it so much. Since prices have skyrocketed so much in my area I have been afraid of moving forward in this business and loosing my money. This video and others you have done are so inspiring that I want to try it again and flip more houses. You are so generous at sharing exactly how you do it. Thank you and wish you so much success!

Hi Elisa, could you please make a video about how you choose your interior and exterior elements? do you work with an interior designer or do you choose all of the changes for your flips? Thank you so much for your helpful information in your videos.

Wow, surprised to hear that you have a hard money lender who can close in 1 week! I am just getting started with house flipping, but most of the lenders I have talked to so far require at least 3 weeks total until closing, due to the need for their own inspection. Do you think it's because of your existing relationship with a lender that you can close so quickly?

[@TransformRealEstate]

Where are you located? I've worked with 3 lenders so far, and all of them were able to close within a week - that's kind of a given in the lending world here. Some of them do inspections too, but can still close on time.

@@TransformRealEstate I am looking to start flipping in Indianapolis, IN and live in SC. I've talked to 4 HM lenders so far. The shortest time frame from sending them a deal for evaluation until closing has been 15 business days, so 3 weeks. Maybe being remote has something to do with it? (But it shouldn't.)

[@Jumpshotrely]

How are you able to get a contract under agreement for say $5000 from the seller if you have no money. Dont they want to see what type of income you have to be Purchasing their house also if the house is beat up how do you pay for repairs and renovation to actually make it seem that that house can be marketable on Facebook or wherever you decide to market that house? And what if you can’t sell the house within the time ?

[@riversreels444]

You don’t remodel, the buyer you find does... but that’s the whole point. They don’t have to see your income, because your not the one buying. You’re the middling the sale. So your contract will read once they’ve signed that payment will be in made in 30 days of agreement

[@lynnma5706]

How do you know the actually sale price before you get the loan for rehab ?

[@TransformRealEstate]

You won't know the actual sale price until you flip and resell, but you can estimate the value. I'm working on a video on estimating a home's value. Stay tuned!

Is there a way to connect with you in person? Hope i did not ask too much

[@TransformRealEstate]

How much profit you share really depends on how much each party is putting into the deal. There's no right or wrong. I shared 20% with my mentor. I'm working on a video where I'll share more details on that. In the Bay Area, private money lenders usually charge 10% and 3 points. They'll have a promissory note and a deed of trust where they can use to collect the money if needed. Good luck!

[@AkinaGod]

You forgot to mention that most hard money loans are greater than 11% interest (with a good credit score). That's per month. On a $200,000 loan, you are paying just over $1,700 a month IN INTEREST. This has to be put TOWARDS your operational costs. Why? A, because it eats into your profits, B, because you legally can't resell a home within 3 months in most states in the US, and C, because in just 3 months, you will have to pay out of pocket ~$5,200. This is profit that DOES NOT make the property worth more money. If you buy a house with hard money with the intent to wholesale it (birddogging, which is illegal in most states), your investor better not find out about it, because they almost NEVER approve of such a thing. You also need to go to a lender with a full plan. They want to know where the house is, the condition it is in, they usually want a full quote on rehabing the property, how you are purchasing (IE at auction, with a realtor, cash buy direct from seller, etc.), and they will want to know how you plan on paying for your costs during the time it is in your care, usually up to 6 months, because realistically, you will not sell the house right away at the 3 month mark. A lot of these videos on jewtube do not tell you the truth, or leave out a lot of details that keep the nail in the coffin for a lot of interested people. The truth is, the easiest way to get into a house is to have 25% on an investor's loan. Not a hard money loan. Not a personal mortgage. On a $200,000 house, you will need $50,000 + fees and expenses. This does not include any rehab. Most investor loans will not be approved of if you are buying and flipping. They are with the intent of leasing out the property after buying. If you tell a bank you want that money for auction, they will laugh you out the door. Do your homework. You want to get into real estate? You need cash. Cold hard cash. And that's the cold hard truth. Get a 2nd job, save every penny you can, stop buying the newest jewphone, and just cancel any bill you can live without (TV, Internet, Netflix, etc.). You can save $50k with a good effort in just 2 years if you try. Two of you could save that in 1 year. Take your time, don't rush into it, that costs money and you will fail. Just be patient and study your local laws and work on saving. By the time you are financially able to afford the entry fees into Real Estate, you will have more knowledge to do it correctly.
