🏘️ Flip-Friendly Pockets in Los Angeles & Orange County Right Now

[Thomas Lorini]

Hey BP fam,

I’ve been seeing some really promising pockets in both Los Angeles and Orange County where flips are still penciling out in 2025 — yes, even with today's higher rates and buyer selectiveness.

What’s working:
✅ Older homes in original condition in up-and-coming neighborhoods
✅ Sellers more open to creative deals
✅ Cosmetic flips (where you're not moving walls or redoing plumbing) are getting decent ROI again
✅ Inventory is tighter, but that’s keeping values in check — especially with strong exit pricing in places like South LA, Garden Grove, Norwalk, Anaheim, Tustin and Lake Forest. 

If you're actively flipping or thinking about getting in, happy to trade notes on deal flow, numbers, and resale comps.

I’m based in Irvine and have a couple flips I will be listing coming up in North Tustin. 

Always down to connect with fellow flippers or investors!

Hey Thomas,

I am definitely interested in connecting! I'm having a lot of trouble finding anything with potential.. that is reasonably priced. I am currently on the hunt for my first fix and flip. I have been looking in LA and San Bernardino,  but no luck. Any info or advice would help me out a lot.

Thank you!
