Thru this site, I was able to go see actual homes that other flippers researched and put up for sale. Most of them needed work; but with a contractor with me one time who was able to estimate a reasonable rehab fee, we knew we could make $ with the property once it was rehabbed. I just didn't have the EMD to tie up the property. But I learned a lot. One time I saw how one flipper put up a property for auction during a scheduled open house. He literally did no work on it, and yet the investors were bidding on it, I guess because it was reasonably priced.
