I really enjoy listening to your pod casts while I'm at work! I'm still working a day job but I'm on my 4th property.

[@MrGabrielramosone]

Thank you for being so generous in your sharing. I renovate homes for an homeowners preparing for sale aswell as corporation that flips homes. Needless to say Ive been looking forward to working our own flips. Would you mind doing a video going into how you manage your communications with realtors. Do you use a CRM? How often do you reach out? What are some points you make sure to communicate? What ever you feel comfortable sharing would be much appreciated.🙏🏽

[@yalvi]

Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience especially regarding working with contractors. It truly helps me so much when thinking about how to start the next project on my home!

[@mitzilacebal1574]

Did you apply for a business permit before flipping? When you applied for a loan was it as a business or personal? Thank you.

[@SureshKumar-tz3ct]

This s sooo helpful , as a newbie your tips really spot on . 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@thisblondefromla]

You’re so inspiring!!!

[@TransformRealEstate]

Aww, thank you so much! I love what I do and it feels amazing to educate and empower others to become their own bosses too 😊

[@TheCinnamondemon]

1) Did you use a GC or hire individual subcontractors 2) How did you estimate rehab costs? 3) What did you say on the phone to agents to get you leads?

[@iamkarmenvolmink]

As an architect il say have a detailed scope of works, deliverables and a proper contract of works for the contractor.

[@laurenkanemoto6260]

Thank you for sharing your experience and I’m sorry about your first experience with that contractor. Lessons learned for sure. You’re an inspiration and I love how sweet you explain things. You’re my favorite flipper!! 🤩

[@TransformRealEstate]

You are so kind and sweet, Lauren! Hope my experience can help others recognize the shady contractors more easily. Let me know what else you’d like to see on my channel 🙏

Hi Elisa, Can you make a video on cold calling agents? I'm struggling with knowing what to say to them. Thank you!

[@Maa-wx9rf]

Great job. Thanks for sharing

[@emiliomejia5331]

I commend you for embarking on this project.... takes guts & grit

[@TransformRealEstate]

Thank you! Yeah, it was scary in the beginning, but I'm glad I stuck it out.

[@vivi51088]

Thank you for sharing your valuable experience! Such great tips 🤗

[@hearMyBrazil]

For older homes, how often do flippers renovate the plumbing and electrical? Sometimes my concern in doing this type of business is leaving a homeowner with a less than product because the fixes are cosmetic.

[@livelovelife32]

Well they would have to agree to bring it up to code in order for their remodel to be approved.

[@hearMyBrazil]

@@livelovelife32 depending on the work being done... if it is cosmetic, you do not need a permit/aka to bring things up to code

[@MinhHoang-gu7mv]

Great video and content, thanks a lot!

Do you have any videos on the process of finding a hard money lender? Also, what kind of documents and information do they need?

[@ozzvilla9226]

Speak to a community lender. They lend to the hard money guys and will be able to get you in touch.

[@007gurubengalooru]

Your presentation is really good, sincere and honest & very clear and helpful. Thank you very much for sharing your experience 👍👏👍

[@wentinz]

Hi Elisa, I have a question: do you have any tips about finding good contractor on Yelp? Should I contract out to one contractor or find separate contractors to do each job?

[@sarahkw7486]

I like your videos very much. I am a SAHM. But always dream about being a house flipper. Wish we could talk and connect so i could learn more from you 🙂

[@aaattt1547]

Love your videos. The audio was a little low on this one, had a hard time hearing what you were saying. xx

[@natusfreedom472]

Itemize your scope of work and get it in writing , thank god u didn’t lose money

[@gabbardada]

Thank you for the fantastic content. I just have a few questions - newbie here, so appreciate any feedback. (1) Why did you not change the contractor if the timeline changed from 2 months to 8 months? I am assuming the price was based on a list of work items. The contractor was only getting paid after the work was done. (2) How did the contractor come to the conclusion that the addition or the bathroom was not permitted? (3) What does the contractor gain from wasting time? He is getting paid the same regardless, correct? (4) Can you not save on the commission by being your own agent?

[@controlledburns]

[@suziz8056]

Hi Elisa. Thanks for sharing this video! I have been to one of your seminars with Raul in San Mateo. I love how you explain things and how you have been sharing your journey with us. I was curious if you shared any of your profits with your mentor on your first deal? My goal is to follow in your footsteps. Thanks again. Susan

[@TransformRealEstate]

Thanks Susan for following along my journey! Yes, I did share the profit with my mentor. That’s a good way for beginners to bring in a mentor to help with the first flip. Let me know what you’d like to see on my channel next ☺️

[@kingarthur819]

I have a house I an interested in flipping. It’s listed at 1.05M. There is one comp same neighborhood, square Ft, beds/bath size of yard that sold for 1.55M. All other comps at 1.1M. Is this a good deal? I am hesitant due to only one comp at 1.55M.

Hi Conny, thank you! I'm working on a new video where I will share my rehab budget sheet. Make sure you tune in later this week!

[@HellYeaShit]

Great video!! Thank you for sharing

[@angeliu6840]

Sounded a lot like my first flip except I got jipped by 3 contractors that stole my money. I thought holding onto it and doing the job right would cost me the same as letting it go at a loss... so I let it go and lost a lot. :(

[@TransformRealEstate]

Awww, I'm so sorry to hear that! I think this is a disadvantage for women in this business, especially if the contractor find out that we are new. Sometimes getting out of a bad deal is better than holding onto it and burn more money and energy. Are you still doing flips? I hope you are able to use the lessons from your first flip to grow in the business. ❤

[@angeliu6840]

@@TransformRealEstate no not anymore, maybe later when i have more money. Don't want to go into legitimate debt if something happens haha

Hi! That’s awesome 👏🏻 thank you for this video! My question is: how can I find a mentor? I moved to the us (San Diego) recently and I don’t have a lot of contacts. I doubt someone would be willing to help a newbie :(

[@TransformRealEstate]

isadorable can_too thanks! When you go to real estate meetings, go up to experienced investors and introduce yourself. If you have funds available, you can also offer to lend money on their deals in exchange for mentorship. Or if you find a deal, offer them profit sharing in exchange for mentorship (this is what I did). You might be surprised, a lot of investors are willing to help newbies 😊

[@isadorablecan_too9432]

Transform Real Estate thank you honey

[@sarahs4922]

So did you profit from your first flip? If not what made you want to keep going with other flips?

[@fredsalfa]

That sounded a little scary for your first flip. Had you done any renovations or anything before?

[@TransformRealEstate]

Hi! I renovated my first home and a rental property before, both condos

[@divagoddess2024]

would be great if i could get you as a mentor :)

[@alexalex8923]

Being scammed in real estate is a painful experience. Finding a contractor you can trust is the biggest contributor to whether you are successful.

[@TransformRealEstate]

Definitely, trust is everything when it comes to contractors. Finding the right one can really make or break the whole project!

Hello, @transformrealestate I like your videos. Thank you for sharing your experiences. What did you initially say to the first contractor you found to get them to do a walk thru with you in the house? How do find good contractors now?
