tips will help with the success of the project.
Choosing The Property

There are other things, besides
location, to consider when choosing a property. The most successful flips yield
the most profit. The ideal property has minimum repairs to be done. Structural
damage, rewiring, and plumbing are the costliest repairs. A hone with just the
need for cosmetic updating is not only the quickest to flip, but generally, the
least expensive with out-of-pocket.
Hiring A Contractor
Having experience in remodeling
can be a money saver if you want to go the DIY route. There is also a benefit
to hiring a contractor. A contractor cannot only free up your time but the
perfect candidate will have many trusted subcontractors to do the work. A good
contractor can also save you money with the rates they have established with
their subcontractors.
If it is your first time to
hire a contractor, the points to remember are to ask friends and family for
recommendations. Also, It is important that a candidate meets you in person and
provides references with details on prior work done. They should not be late,
or reschedule the appointment several times, because their skill is time
management. Be sure to check out sites such as the Better Business Bureau or Central Oklahoma Home Builder's Association to confirm your contractor is local and properly licensed.
Smart Repairs And Renovation
Knowing what repairs cost and
what improvements will help on selling price is preparation that is invaluable
for flipping a home. This is especially important before you make an offer on a
property and if you plan on doing the repair work yourself.
A good rule of thumb is to
estimate an extra 20% to the cost of repairs, allowing room for unexpected
delays or problems. While the bigger repairs such as mold, structural issues,
and rewiring should be avoided, some repairs will need to be done in almost
every flip.
In addition to repairs, the
updating of a house is the best plan for a quick resell. Improvements such as
flooring, lighting, paint, and fixtures can transform a property. The kitchen
and bathroom styles change quickly, so updating is a must for potential buyers.
Save money by refinishing good cabinets and saving working appliances.
