Antonio De Llamas Learning the Flip Side in Denver 🏠
22 September 2025 | 1 reply
Since you already know how to position properties to renters on Facebook Marketplace, you could apply that same creativity toward listing strategy and social buzz around flips.If you’re looking to get involved hands-on, you might consider:Partnering with a local flipper to help market one of their projects (great way to learn the numbers and process without taking all the risk).Sitting in on open houses and noting what questions buyers ask most often — it’ll give you insight into what features matter in your market.Starting small by networking with wholesalers and rehabbers in Denver so you can see what types of properties are moving and why.Flipping has a steep learning curve, but with your background in marketing, you’re already ahead in one of the toughest parts: getting eyes on the property when it’s ready to sell.Looking forward to seeing how you dive into this side of the business!
