What are the worst practices of guru’s?

Why does it seem as if every guru teaches new flippers to do swing a hammer and demo kitchen cabinets when there is often much more to do?

none of the gurus teach how to inspect a property and what to lookout for?


is the formula always to get a half decent looking female and ask her to choose countertops and tile?

why do they suggest that a flip can be done in ten days?

One of the guys from Triple Dip Flip, the A&E show, in a recent video says they lost over $500,000 with the properties the were working with. He said A&E wouldn't want you to know that.
