    Who else is interested in coming on to talk about flipping houses? We would really like to talk to / feature flippers from some of the more expensive markets like Los Angeles, San Diego, San Francisco, San Jose, Honolulu, Washington DC, Denver, Boston, Philadelphia, Portland, Raleigh and Miami.

     The show is live.

    In this episode of The House Flipping Show James Wise interviews Harvey Yergin about how he and his wife were able to make a $31,000 profit on a house they flipped in Columbus, Ohio even though it was their very first flip. During the show James and Harvey discuss everything from how to cut out the middle man to increase your flipping profits, to which finishes to choose and why.

    Hey James,

    I don't meet your criteria for flipping in the expensive markets but my wife and I just finished up selling our first live-in flip where we profited $50,000 tax free. I have been in working in real estate for a few years now including helping manage an investors venture capital backed, real-estate investing start-up and now I am doing my own thing, working as a contractor, realtor, investing with my partner, and also with my wife.

    I'm going to keep it rolling and hopefully will have a consistent flipping business soon, but if you're ever looking for a guest and want an episode geared towards getting started/ beginner episode I love sharing how I got started and want to help other people get going as well.

    Reach out anytime

    Keep crushing it!

    Best,

    Ryan

    It was a live-in flip, where we did all repairs so throughout the two years we did track everything and did our best to estimate a rough labor figure for our work which brought us to around:

    Rehab cost: $11,000

    Total Cash Invested including rehab & closing costs: $18,500

    Here are some before photos

     Thanks for reaching out Michael. Tell you what how about you update me here on this thread when the flip you and your girlfriend are doing right now sells. I'd love to have you both on to do a show about how you as a couple got through your first flip......Reminds me of a flip or flop kinda vibe.

    @James Wise Hey James- as promised- I wanted to follow up on the status of the flip I mentioned a few months back. We finally closed! We turned at 47k profit (pre tax) after all expenses and holding costs. This was our first flip and it was a roller coaster. Learned a lot, acquired a few extra grey's but the experience was priceless. The total project from start to close was 6 months. Let me know if we can be of any help!
