“Is Flipping Houses Really The Best Way To Get Started In Real Estate Investing?”
Most of the time, yes, we believe that it is.
Obviously not everyone is the same, but for most people just starting out, flipping real estate has proven over and over again to be one of the very best ways to get started in real estate investing.
No, flipping is not about passive income, like rental property.
It’s about making money actively through the business of buying (sometimes fixing) and selling houses for profit. It’s about fast, wholesale flips (with minimum cash outlay and miniscule risk) and a proven system for generating mammoth paydays through the fix-and-flip rehabbing side of the business.
Unlike buying and holding rental properties, flipping houses is a relatively low –risk proposition and can typically boost your income faster than anything else.
Nothing kills a business faster than being cash-poor.
And if you’re a beginner, you typically need a quick infusion of cash and an ongoing stream of income to support and sustain your growing real estate investing business. And that’s where flipping homes comes in.
Even if you have bad credit and little money, you can do this.
Through the community support and ongoing continuing education you’ll find at FlippingHomes.com, you’ll learn…
- How to identify the best house flipping opportunities…
(Where are the deals? How do you approach the sellers? Where should you start?) - How to navigate the deal…
(How to make good offers, minimize your risk and go to closing.) - How to locate all the cash you’ll ever need…
(Some deals don’t require cash, some do. Know the difference and know where to get cash when you need it.) - How to know your best exit strategies…
(Who are you going to sell this thing to? What’s your backup plan?) - How to establish a solid investing plan…
(Rather than wandering aimlessly and confused through deal after deal, not really sure what it takes to get from point A to point B.) - And most of all, how to use flipping houses to quickly generate a remarkable income, and break free from the rat race.
FlippingHomes.com is here to help you move forward, regardless of your current level as an investor.
But with the barrage of “lifetime opportunities” around us, and the onslaught of real estate investing information that can be found, you may find yourself asking the legitimate question…
“What Really Sets FlippingHomes.com Apart?”
It’s a fair enough question. And once you spend any amount of time here, you’ll quickly discover that the Flipping Homes community is not your run-of-the-mill, get rich quick, all-things-real-estate-investing shopping mall. And if you’ve been around the net much on this topic, you probably know EXACTLY what I’m talking about.
If (like us) you’ve grown weary of the old-school, pie-in-the-sky approach to real estate investing education, then you should find the Flipping Homes community to be a breath of fresh air.
Here’s a taste of what you’ll find unique about us…
“We’re Laser Focused on the People and Business of Flipping Real Estate.”
Truly, the world of real estate investing is expansive, and grows deeper and wider every day. From flips to lease options to land contracts to note buying, the options are varied and the opportunities are many.
However if you take time to look carefully at the truly successful real estate investors in your own area, one of the common, core principals you’ll see in their businesses is that of LASER FOCUS.
Have you ever noticed? In almost every case, successful real estate investors are “specialists” who focus in a specific area, rather than “generalists” who use their “investor toolbelt” to do any and every kind of deal they can find.
It’s not a coincidence. It’s a core success principal.
And it’s crucial that you also be committed to sorting through the clutter of options and the daily barrage of “opportunities”, and fiercely strive to narrow and focus primarily on the areas that are the most profitable, fit within your business plan, and best suit you personally.
“FlippingHomes.com is NOT about all things real estate investing.”
The tips, information and ongoing continuing education you’ll find here are all specifically relevant to the flipping houses business.
So if you’re looking to hear from the “guru of the day”, you’ll need to look elsewhere. If you need to learn about landlording, lease options or owner financing, (all great topics) there are dozens of other places you can go.
But if you want the most targeted, specific, and relevant information from real investors on the real-world business of flipping houses, you’ve just found your home base.
“Flip This House: A Real World Approach To The Flipping Houses Business.”
Many people in our position approach this industry with as much hype as possible. Push the dream, sell the sizzle.
Our approach to this is a “real world” approach, and our community appreciates it. This “sizzle” in this business is already there – it’s real and it’s indisputable. But how do you go about most effectively eating the steak?
Rather than dazzle you with a Hawaiian shirt-clad “infomercial dream”, push some books and tapes at you, then move on to the next Joe, we’d rather start a relationship with you built on integrity and trust. We’d rather give you an honest, ethical, reality-based look into this business, its risks and benefits, and what it takes to really make it without losing your shirt in the process.
“Reality TV…Meet Reality.”
Let’s get one thing straight. The TV shows are great. But it’s TV. And flipping houses is a real business.
Reality TV tends to paint a very sanitized, surreal picture of the real world of house flipping. But we’re here to help you really figure this thing out. You need to see where the dots really are, and then actually start connecting them.
It’s true - even if you have absolutely no money, you can earn a staggering income finding (sometimes fixing) and quickly flipping houses. The Flipping Homes “1-2 Punch” is a powerful system, and we’re here to give you access to the supportive community and ongoing education you’ll need to succeed.
Yes, you really can live the Hawaiian shirt dream. And no, it probably won’t look quite like it does on TV.
But you need continuing education and ongoing support if you want to avoid the biggest “learning curve” mistakes most investors make. And that’s where we come in.
“Earth To Gurus: Real Estate Investing Is NOT Right For Everyone.”
Now there’s something you probably don’t hear everyday. But it’s the honest truth.
Just like not everyone’s cut out to be a doctor or dentist, we don’t believe or teach that everyone and his uncle should be investing in real estate. It’s just not the best fit for everyone.
We have plenty of continuing education for you to help you unleash a solid, highly profitable flipping houses business. But rather than forcefully shoving books and CD’s down your throat, we’re committed to being a friendly guide.
We may be strong at times, but we’ll never insult your intelligence or try to manipulate you. It’s not our way.
Yes, the properly educated investor who takes action on what’s learned can, in fact, build explosive wealth and quickly earn a dazzling income that dwarfs most people’s salaries.
But there’s also real work involved. And strategy. And planning. And a crucial “inner game” that’s absolutely essential to master if you want to be counted among those who are ultimately successful in the game of real estate investing. The rewards are great and worthwhile, but they’re not for everyone.
Is flipping houses a good fit for you? Well that’s one thing we’re here to help you find out.

A Word From Our Founder, Steve Cook...
Hi, I'm Steve. I'm glad you made it here, and I hope you find your experience with us educational, motivational and truly inspiring.
The first thing I want you to know about me is that I’m just an average guy who had no real estate experience when I started investing in 1998. At the time, I was dead broke. I had just come out of a failed restaurant venture, was going through a divorce and had debt up to my eyeballs.
I wanted to invest in real estate, and as I checked it out and kept hearing a lot about “no money down” investing. So I set out to learn how I could do it.

Watching him grow to an extremely successful investor, mentor and coach, I realized that he had accelerated to a point in his business that had left mine in the dust. I contacted Steve and...I have to tell you that I have rarely known anyone who opened the doors to his company, family and faith as much as Steve did for me. To say it made an impact would be a huge understatement. Steve seems to have one goal: to over deliver -- and he blew all my expectations away while I was with him. I've been able to take his teachings and turn both my business and personal life around in a way that few ever have. The average profit from my deals jumped from around $3,000 to $13,000 in my wholesale deals. And that was just by one technique. I have applied many others he shared with me that have added just as much to my bottom line. I can't say "thank you" enough to Steve the Mentor, but I owe even more to Steve the person. Thanks, Steve. Friends for life. Terry Wygal

I've had the pleasure of knowing Steve Cook since he began his real estate investing career. As I looked into it more and more, I began to realize just how amazing the business of real estate investing really is. And once I discovered it, the light bulb was permanently on. It took me about two seconds to make up my mind that this would absolutely be the primary way I would make my living for the rest of my life.
By early 2002, I had participated in 170+ transactions and, for the first time in my life, had became truly financially free. The freedom I felt was nearly indescribable.
And after many hundred more successful transactions, flipping real estate is still my bread and butter today. I also coach and train people in how to follow my footsteps, if it's the right path for them. I've written some books on the subject and also offer educational events through this website from time to time.
But real estate investing - and especially flipping real estate - continues to be the very core of what I do day-in and day-out.
Let me tell you, it’s great! I am truly blessed and praise God every day for allowing me, his humble servant, to enjoy such success.
I don’t have to get up to go to work every morning. I don’t have a boss so I set my own schedule, go on vacations when I like, take a day off when I choose, live where I want to live, and provide for my family without ever having to worry about how I’m going to get by.
Call me lucky if you must. But the only reason I might consider myself lucky is that I didn’t fall for the “buy and hold” strategy of investing taught to many beginners. I haven’t done anything special to achieve my success – certainly nothing that anyone else can’t do.
If you like, I’ll help you move towards capturing the same success I've been so blessed to experience. That’s the why I created this site in the first place.
So whether you are looking for a real community of passionate real estate investors, continuing education material, or are just passing through, I’m glad to have you here.
Please stay a while. Browse through our original real estate investing articles, real life case studies, home study courses and especially our very active real estate investing community.
I wish you the very best, in business and in life.
Blessed Investing, 
Steve Cook
