Flipping In The Bay Area

John Slegg
Posted

I am new to Biggerpockets. I live in San Jose, Ca. I want to try and find out more information about the idea of flipping houses in the Bay Area. I don't have any current experience flipping house, but do have an excellent contractor in my family that can do the work, and about $500,000 in savings that I can invest in this project. I would love to hear from anyone that is currently flipping houses in this area, and whether they would recommend someone like me getting into this field. Most of the information I have read over the last year or so, suggest that you shouldn't get into flipping in the Bay Area, as it very competitive and very expensive. However, I feel that if you can find the right house at the right price, then surely there is still money to be made.
