Ron McCracken: I am a project engineer and past home inspector and really like this book. I have rehabbed 9 or10 houses. They have done a good job on how to quickly categorize what you see,and what it might cost to fix. This book covers esentials of project management and business. This is a heavy weight book on establishing a rehab business. if you follow the book and develop the knowledge it recomends you will become a professional. There is much more to this book and worth a read if you are considering flipping houses. Great book!

Irish Jedi: I am reviewing this book as someone who has flipped a few properties over the last several years. I have had (3) minor successes and (1) big flop, learing various lessons along the way. I found this book to be a comprehensive and enlightining read! I wish I had this book years ago (I believe I would have done much better). The authors have covered every area of the flip including the pitfalls that turn a flip into a flop! There are several things that make this book a must have resource: the detailed step-by-step construction plan (doing projects out of order can kill your margin), the book also provides a comprehensive cost analysis (including several things that most investors miss). These numbers are presented in an an easy to compute formula that, in the end, tell you exactly what to offer for the propery on the front-end of the deal. This is truly a must have book if you are interested in flipping!

David Etenburn: I have read, reread and digested several fix and flip books over the years. This one to date is the best. Starting with your mindset, it then progresses into finding the property, and what a concept in finding them! It changes the way anyone would think of investing in rehab property. The concept here can put you in the position to rehab whole neighborhoods, one house at a time!!

Then come the details. In order, I might add! Everything you must, want, or could do to a property to enhance its value.

While it avoids the issue on how your business team can make or break you (be it professionals and trades workers), there are other books that cover this topic, and it takes an entire book to cover this subject properly. They were wise in focusing on the physical business of flipping houses.

Finally, this book will teach you how to estimate a home's value, calculate the costs to improve it, finance it, and sell it; so you know how much profit you should expect, assuming all goes well (which it rarely does!). The broad brush painted is detailed enough for you to be able to adjust the costs for your market with limited effort.

Now, anyone and everyone has the...

Mr E J: When I ordered my FLIP book, it was back-ordered for about 2 months, I forgot about it and ordered another course in the meantime. I wish I had waited. The step-by-step approach is informative and just what I needed. The real life scenarios help you envision actual conversations that I have personally had with others. I could not put it down because it is an easy read. The online property analyzer tool is very useful. I wish the software mentioned in the book was available; perhaps it will be in the future.

As a retiree and Real Estate invester, I am looking to supplement my retirement fund. I feel I now have the knowledge, which makes me more powerful in approaching new opportunities that can be somewhat challenging for a novice investor/rehabber. I have learned that I do not have to do all the work myself. Work smarter, not harder.

Real estate will always be a good way to make money. This book teaches you how to do everything and not miss the important details. I was looking for something that is easy to read and informative. There are lots of other courses that charge much more money, but none better.

For the price, its worth its weight in GOLD!
