I’m a licensed realtor and investor based in California, and I work closely with builders and investors who do both fix & flips and new construction projects.From what I’ve seen, your decision between flipping and building often comes down to speed vs. scalability:Fix & flips can get you quicker returns and experience dealing with lenders, contractors, and resale dynamics.New builds take longer and require more capital upfront, but once your systems and subs are dialed in, the margins (and control) can be much higher.If you’re already comfortable with the building side, you might even do hybrid projects — like buying older homes on good lots, doing heavy remodels or additions, and building equity fast.I’d be happy to connect and share what’s been working for investors around Folsom and greater Sacramento right now.
