My First Flip Success with Ms. Timothy Ln.

Can hardly contain myself, I have not closed the deal yet but I can already visualize the check.

I was baking cookies during the open house when I received the call from the broker to inform me that we had received an offer for the home after being listed on the MLS for only ONE day. I was like, Whaaaat???? then I was almost 100% sure it was going to be a low ball offer (like the ones I tend to do) and behold... it was for $7,000 more than the listed price....

I considered myself a pure "Buy and Hold" investor... but flips are so much fun,  Now all I can think of is the next 5 that I want to do this year...

Below the numbers and some before and after pics.
