I have always had a passion for physical fitness -- running several marathons, interstate bike races and other events. This obsession for self improvement contributed greatly to my success throughout my eight years as a Wildland Firefighter.

As some of you may already know, I have been training the last year for a bodybuilding show. I put in hours of work, months of dieting and calorie restriction, early mornings and massive amounts of willpower to make this happen. Training for this show was a true challenge that took sheer discipline, determination and grit.

Flipping homes is more than just a business model.

Taking a property and sprucing it up has the power to revitalize a neighborhood, raise the price of homes in the area, create more curb appeal to move faster on the market, and last but not least, make your living area more homey and inviting.

Here, we take a look at 11519 Dawn Street in Eagle River.

This home was listed and sold by Matthew Lindsay at Precision Home Group in the summer 2019, then it was completely transformed and put back on the market for sale by Stacy Hague at EXP Realty.

Buying a home can bring out a slough of emotions. It is a big decision, and there are many moving parts that must come together to make it happen. It’s both stressful and rewarding.

In my last article, I cast a broad net and talked about the five most common real estate investments:

1. Flipping

2. REITS

3. Small deals (1-4 Units)

4. Big Deals (5+ Units)

5. Syndication

Today, we are talking about flipping real estate, the benefits and drawbacks that are associated with it, and a brief overview of what it entails.

 

Flipping

Simply put, house flipping is the act of buying a home and selling it at a higher price. This is typically done by finding a foreclosure, or a fixer-upper home that is in disrepair and needs a lot of improvements.
