how to make my own "flip"video

I'm doing my first flip soon and would like to make a video about it. Any ideas on editing software or a place to start?

by the way, here are my numbers

purchase price 35k
rehab cost 15k
selling price: 95k

not a high dollar flip but the numbers look good.

Thanks,
Rich

flip camera for the flip video - makes too much sense :-)

I think I'm just gonna spring for one of those flips.

Cool tip - get a 1/4" threaded bolt at a hardware store, a washer, and about 6' of strong string. Tie the hardware at each end of the string. Thread the bolt into the tripod socket of the camera. Drop the washer to the ground and step on it. Now pull the camera up to shooting level, stretching the string taut - presto, you've eliminated most of your vertical shaking - it's a reverse monopod you can carry in your pocket and make for pennies.

Not as good as a tripod but a lot better than handheld shooting.
