What to do with 100k in equity on first flip?
I bought my first foreclosure flip for 213k, put 25k into it (238k note), and now will sell for around 350k to 360k. After all expenses paid, I should net around 90k-100k. With the goal of buying and holding and doing some flips along the way, I am curious to what more seasoned investors would do with the money? I have some external factors at play (i.e. student loans, want to find another live-in-flip, etc.), but I am willing to put a significant chunk into real estate. I also have an investor who is looking to contribute 40k to my next project. What are your thoughts?!

my first thought is for your first flip that is unbelievable. making 90 to 100k on a flip in today's market is something to be quite proud of and to do it on your first one that is really special.
remember you will owe a fair amount of tax on that income so pay that first so you don't get squirlly with uncle.. then I think you just rinse repeat..
