Flipping in a hot market
The housing market is and has been quite strong, making it tougher to find good deals. The way to get the best deal is definitely looking off market. Recently I was thinking if it would make sense to find listed properties that need less work (specifically in the kitchen/bathrooms) and not necessarily meant for investors. Aside from cosmetic work, most of the rehab money would go straight to the kitchen and bathroom since those can boost value. Could this work? Purchasing a property at around 6-10% discount and then adding most value to the kitchen/bath. I would assume that it could be very much up to the person doing the appraisal? What do you think?
