First of all I'd like to say hello to everyone & I look forward to all of your advice. I am a 23 year old in Sacramento, CA looking to start flipping properties. I am trying to start off young before I have a family, so that I can retire early. I just started reading forums trying to learn from other peoples mistakes, & I was wondering, what advice would you guys have for me starting off? I have a steady job, & all of my debt is just about paid off. Any advice would be GREATLY appreciated. Thanks!!
First of do realize there is a Risk with Flipping while lots of money can be made it can also be lost as if you buy the home and the market slows you may be stuck with it... so one thing i would suggest is make sure the home your are trying to flip is one you could live in if you had to.

I have found knocking to be the most effective but if I get one deal every two months off all my mailers it more than balances the costs. Also mailing creatively is key. Try sending mailers in colored envelopes. I like mine to look like party invitations. Most pre-foreclosures in my area receive about 25 mailers within the first few days of publication so I want my envelope to stand out, as well as my mailer.
Good Luck!
good idea to use different envelopes.
