How about $500,000 or maybe $1,000,000? Flipping houses does not have to be difficult. We have successfully flipped houses and multifamily properties in California and Florida, and in this book we will show you how you can too. The real estate strategy of Buy, Fix and Sell, aka flipping fixer-uppers, is where an investor is implementing Forced Appreciation. Forced Appreciation is the core result of flipping fixer-uppers. In simple terms, by fixing or rehabbing an investment property, you are increasing the value of the property, in other words, forcing the appreciation. With flipping properties using Forced Appreciation, beginning investors could profit from real estate 100% of the time. Your risk is limited and the profit potential high, when real estate is purchase at the right price. Forcing Appreciation has been around a long time. First introduced by William Nickerson, in his book from 1959, “How I Turned $1,000 Into a Million in Real Estate in My Spare Time” he discusses his technique for fixing-up rundown property. This was the first major book of its kind that spelled it all out for the new type of real estate investor. This technique of creating value is nothing more than what we like to call Forced Appreciation—a term forgotten by the new breed, where you are forcing the appreciation of property by making “valued” repairs—repairs and updating which people, your buyers, want, like and appreciate. Repairs and renovations that present “value” to the end buyer are the necessary things that get your property sold for a nice price. The majority of the repairs, when done correctly, are not complex or overly expensive. They are, nonetheless, a solid investment that will increase value to your property and get you a healthy sales price. Why We are Uniquely Qualified to Write this Book We have been investing in real estate for a combined 38 years. We have purchased, fixed, flipped, rented and sold hundreds of single family homes, multifamily properties and apartment buildings. We have improved entire blocks and even neighborhoods using Forced Appreciation. Most properties were vacant, some abandoned and all in distress. Most of the projects undertaken were complete disasters and were considered major fixer-uppers. This is where the investor makes the most money with forced appreciation. Our growth strategy was two-fold: (1) flipping fixers for quick cash flow; and (2) holding a portfolio of rental properties including duplexes, triplex, quads and smaller apartment buildings for long term growth and positive cash flow. We have also invested in raw land (wholesaling), condos, and retail commercial property. We have wholesaled bundled flips to investors and have sold many post fixer-uppers to investors and happy owners and first time buyers.
