When homeowners need to shed the burden of a home they can no longer afford or simply no longer want, they may not have the time or resources to repair and renovate it, place it on the market, and wait for months or even a year for a buyer to make a reasonable offer. In such cases, they’re often willing to sell at a greatly reduced price to a serious buyer who has the financial resources to close the deal. How do you discover opportunities like this? In ssss1, I point out several techniques for discovering distressed properties and their distressed owners.
Doing your homework
Flipping houses is a risky venture, but you can minimize risk and maximize profit by doing your homework:
Research the property. If you’re buying a property in foreclosure, probate, bankruptcy, or a similar situation, research the property carefully to make sure you know what you’re buying. Research includes a visit to the property and to the register of deeds office to research the title and other key documents. See ssss1 for details.
