7 Figure Flipping

If you could make an extra $7,000 in the next month and a half, working almost entirely from home, what would that do for you?

One of my students, a newbie real estate investor named Ryan, did exactly that… and it has changed his life.

Ryan joined my coaching program a couple months ago, and he has an amazing story.  He’s just a regular guy… except he’s currently unemployed and unable to drive or leave the house much (you’ll find out why)…

And yet he closed on his first real estate deal less than 2 months after starting to learn this business… and just this past week he locked up his second.  This is just the beginning…

In this interview, Ryan shares his story and how the House Flipping Formula coaching program has helped him take action and get deals!

All right, listen up—in just 2 weeks, I’m closing the doors to the House Flipping Formula training program.  I won’t be taking on any new students for a while… we’re going to revamp some things, make some changes, and then launch again sometime in the future… at a significantly higher price.

It’s no secret I love coaching people.     And I honestly believe House Flipping Formula is the best way to learn to flip houses—especially if you want to cut months or even years off the learning curve and just get right into it, like Ryan did.

I want to make sure NO ONE gets left out who wants to be part of this.

Here’s what I need you to do… go to HouseFlippingFormula.com and check out the details… what’s included, how it works, the price, everything.  If you have any questions… any at all… send an email to [email protected] and Kyle will answer them.

If you feel like this is for you, I would love to get the chance to work with you… but you need to sign up now, because the doors are closing soon (and it won’t be at this price again).

Head over to HouseFlippingFormula.com now!

A few takeaways from today’s episode.

• How Ryan’s situation has helped him succeed (by forcing him to rely on others to do things for him)…
• Ryan’s huge goals for the rest of this year (and his unique “why”)…
• Why the same people seem to get “lucky” again and again…
• Why Ryan prefers to learn via video rather than in person…
• How Ryan is able to get answers to his questions on a daily basis, often within hours… and why this is EXTREMELY important…
• The three things you need to do to succeed (Ryan’s advice to other “newbies”)…

I hate excuses.  I hate the words “yeah, but…”  And when I hear someone saying that they just “can’t” buy houses in today’s market for whatever reason, it gets me fired up.

As you can probably guess, today’s episode is a bit of a rant…

I recently talked to a fellow investor who insisted that buying houses is really hard right now.  I’m here to tell you that’s NOT the case.

If you’re NOT buying houses regularly right now, there are 3 things you need to do to get back on track and start finding deals.

Listen in on my “rant” to learn all 3!

A few takeaways from today’s episode.

• The one thing you need to be able to do to be successful in this business… (do this right, and everything else will fall into place…)
• The 3 things you need to do if you want to buy houses in this market…
• The number of work hours it takes to buy a house, on average…
• The unfortunate truth about letting “agents and bird dogs” handle all of your acquisitions for you…
• The reality of trying to buy houses on the MLS in southern California…
• And… why I try to avoid going to the gym in the evenings…

• As I mentioned last week, there are some big changes coming up for the House Flipping Formula coaching program.. and I’m going to be shutting the doors to new students for a while.  Get in now!  Head over to HouseFlippingFormula.com to sign up, or email [email protected] if you have any questions.

We have about 90 houses in the pipeline right now, which is awesome!  But we’ve learned a few important lessons about flipping houses out of state recently as well.  Plus, the market is always changing… in this episode, I give you an update on everything—where we’re at and where we’re headed!

A few takeaways from today’s episode.

• Things have been BUSY around here recently!
• Tara and I just launched the 8 Minute Millionaire podcast, which has been a ton of fun so far.  Check that out at 8MinuteMillionaire.com.
• On the house flipping side, we have about 90 houses in the pipeline at the moment.
• Kale and Vanessa both just got back from out of state trips, meeting with agents and other people we’re working with.
• We’ve learned a few things that are different in flipping out of state versus flipping in California.  We’re always still learning!  We don’t have everything figured out.
• When you’re getting started in this business, evaluate your situation.  If you don’t have a lot of capital, don’t go out and start trying to flip high-end properties.  Start by wholesaling and partnering, start as a bird dog, do whatever you can.
• Sometimes if you have money to put into a project, that becomes the path of least resistance, where it’s easier to just throw money at it rather than dig in and figure out the best or most cost-effective way to do something.
• We are no longer buying a house a day, and that’s intentional; we’re buying 2 or 3 per week.
• The market is still strong, though not as strong as it has been recently, so I’m cautiously optimistic going into the cooler months right now.
• I have some big changes I’ll be making soon to my house flipping coaching program, so stay tuned for more info on that!

• If you haven’t checked out 8 Minute Millionaire, the new podcast Tara and I are having a BLAST creating, head over to 8MinuteMillionaire.com and find us on iTunes!
• Big changes coming up for my house flipping coaching program.  I’m actually going to be “shutting it down” to new students for a while so I can revamp some things.  If you want to get in, sign up now over at HouseFlippingFormula.com!

My beautiful, intelligent, amazing wife Tara is joining me on today’s episode of the House Flipping HQ Podcast to talk about how we balance business and family, what it’s been like working together, working from home, and how she manages to deal with someone as crazy as me on a daily basis!

Earlier this week, we asked you to send in any questions you had for the two of us, and we got a ton of responses!  We ended up spending almost an hour answering as many as we could.  

Unfortunately, we had a few technical difficulties when recording the video… so there are a few spots where the video stops and it’s only audio.     But my tech guy Kyle had some fun with it… you’ll see what I mean.  

Watch the video above to learn more about how we balance family, business, and our relationship!

If you have any questions or feedback, we'd love to hear from you in the comments below!

A few takeaways from today’s episode.

• Your “why” is the most important thing.  Never lose sight of it.  For us, that's family… so family ultimately comes first.
• When you first get started in this business, you may have to put in long hours to get the ball rolling.  Your spouse or partner needs to know this from the start and be on board with this.
• Communicate, communicate, communicate.  Make sure your spouse, partner, or loved ones feel heard and respected when decisions are being made.  Be completely open with each other!
• Set boundaries when needed, specifically around how much time you spend working versus how much time you spend with family.
• Similarly, if you don't have the discipline or the willpower at first to take the action and put in the hours you need to, you may have to be more strict and regimented with your time to make sure you're accomplishing what you need to accomplish.
• Physical exercise can work wonders, especially for your mind.  It helps reduce stress and clear your head.  You ABSOLUTELY should be exercising!
• The balance between family and business is constantly evolving for us!  How we handled it a few years ago is different than how we handle it now.  Find what works for you and your spouse, partner, or loved ones.  

• Tara and I have a new project we're working on that we're super excited about.  It's called 8 Minute Millionaire, and it's a down-to-earth, raw, practical look at how to change our life and make a million dollars!  Check it out at 8MinuteMillionaire.com.
• You can also search for the 8 Minute Millionaire podcast in iTunes!  We're just getting it off the ground, but we would love for you to subscribe and leave us a rating and review!  Search “8 Minute Millionaire” in the iTunes store!

I've had a few things on my mind lately… specifically, I've realized I'm living a life of mediocrity. I'm not living up to my full potential at all… and I need to get after it even more!

The story I'm going to share in this video blew my mind when I first heard it…

This next video is one I sent out earlier this week, but I'm including it here again for convenience and because I think it's that important.

What's one thing you can do today in your business to move past whatever is holding you back from your goals?

A year ago this week, I got a phone call from Andy that helped open the door for me to buy more properties out of state, in states I had never been to. That one thing has transformed my business… since then, I've bought around 70 houses out of state. And these houses will bring in roughly a million dollars for me that I wouldn't have made otherwise.

That one thing took my business to a whole new level.

But I've realized that this is still just the beginning. In many ways, I'm living a life of mediocrity, not living up to my full potential… and it's time to change that. What about you? Where do you feel like you still have room to grow, and what's one thing you can do today to take you to that next level?

Let me know in the comments!

A few takeaways from today’s episode.

• I've been living a lief of mediocrity in many ways.  There's just so much more I want to accomplish!  Time to get after it!  
• You are completely responsible for what you do with your life.  Yes, things happen to us that are not our fault, but how we respond is completely up to us.
• When you hit a dip, get back up and keep going!

• I've been creating a lot of videos lately, and I'm loving it… I'm going to be doing this more and more.  So, why not click here to subscribe to my YouTube channel?  
• I mentioned a book called The Miracle Morning, by Hal Erod.  Grab a copy of it on Amazon!

The post HFHQ 91: I’m living a life of mediocrity. Here’s why… appeared first on House Flipping HQ.

Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

I want to talk to you about something that has been on my mind a lot lately… belief.

The first step to being successful is believing you can be successful.  If you don't have this, you're not going to get anywhere.

Want to know how to earn a million dollars?  Here's how…

• Set your goal ($1,000,000).
• Believe you can achieve it.
• Put a plan in place to get there.
• Then start taking those first steps.

The belief part is absolutely key.

I’d love to hear your thoughts on this question… do you believe you can become a millionaire?  Why or why not?  Let me know in the comments!

A few takeaways from today’s episode.

• If no one in your life has ever “given you permission” to be successful, then consider this your permission.  
• Everyone doubts themselves sometimes.  The question is, how soon can you get back into action after getting discouraged?
• If you don't plan on getting somewhere, you'll never get there.  Set your goals, create your plan, and take the first step!

My brother Steven held an amazing wholesaling training class this past Tuesday, where he outlined his exact system and showed how he’s making $50,000 per month wholesaling… working just a few hours a week. Awesome, right?  I was blown away.

Here's the thing… there's still one day left to get access to the recording of this web class.  And we're still taking questions from attendees, too!  If you want to get access to this, click the link below.

The post HFHQ 90: The “First Step” to Success (Don't Skip This) appeared first on House Flipping HQ.

Today’s episode is a little slice of life—my family and I are on a road trip along the West Coast, and it has been amazing…it’s just unbelievable how beautiful this place is.

In today’s episode, my wife Tara narrates and we share some of the highlights of our trip!

So… why are we talking about a road trip on a house flipping podcast?  Because it’s so important to stay inspired and to remember your “why.”  Why do you work as hard as you do?  Why pursue success?

Being able to spend time with my family and create incredible memories is my “why.”  As you move forward on your real estate journey, always keep your “why” at the forefront of your mind.

A few takeaways from today’s episode.

• Happiness and true success is what you make of it.  What you do with your life, and the relationships you build and memories you share… these are the things that matter.
• Success is in your head and in the actions that you take.  It isn’t something that “happens” to you—it’s something you create by having the right mindset and taking the right action.
• Don't be afraid to make the dream a reality.  It's not easy, but it's also not as hard as we often think.  You can do this!

I had a great time being interviewed on Matt Theriault's podcast, Epic Real Estate Investing!  Check it out at the link below.

Also, in the spirit of sharing our trip itinerary with you, here are a few of the places we stayed and visited!

• Fess Parker Hotel
• MesaVerde Restaurant
• Seacrest Inn
• Dr. Burnstein’s Ice Cream Lab
• Ember Restaurant
• Fogcatcher Inn
• Hearst Castle
• Big Sur Lodge
• Nepenthe Restaurant
• Tickle Pink Inn

My dad recently inherited a large piece of riverfront property—and we’re trying to decide what to do with it!  I need your input and your help (seriously… if you have insights or expertise to share on this situation after listing to the episode, I'd love to hear it).  Listen in to get the whole scoop!

Also, my conversations with my dad about this piece of land brought up a few other things I want to share with you about real estate investing and recognizing opportunities.  There is so much opportunity out there.  Keep your eyes open, stay confident, and take action!

A few takeaways from today’s episode.

• There are opportunities everywhere.  You never know when one will pop up, so stay alert!
• Sometimes you have to stick to your guns.  Stick to your number—sellers will often reject the first offer, but then come around later when they’re really ready to sell.
• What one person can do, another person can do—within reason, of course.  If “they” can do it, you can do it.
• You’re not far from massive success—we are all just an inch away from massive success.
• No matter what happens, you’re always learning.  Nothing is wasted.

I've had the privilege of being interviewed on a couple other podcasts recently!  Check out these episodes for more great info.

This past week, I took my family to Raging Waters, a water park here in Southern California.  We had so much fun, we went twice in one week!  And on the second visit, I found myself in the middle of a big learning experience that I want to share with you…

Honestly, even though this was happening right in front of me, I could barely believe it myself.  But what I saw taught me something that I think is so profound and so important to keep in mind if you want to succeed at house flipping… or in any other aspect of life!

A few takeaways from today’s episode.

• Don't assume other people are just “lucky” when they're successful.
• Don't assume things are supposed to be hard.
• Don't be afraid to learn and try new solutions that are presented to you.
• Don't stand in line if you don't have to!  

In last week's episode, I broke down the system I use to flip houses without seeing them.  Check it out here.

On the previous episode of the House Flipping HQ Podcast, I told you I would break down how to buy houses without ever seeing them.  Today, I’m going to do my best to do that.

This is how I buy houses in other cities and states where I’ve never been.  Enjoy!

A few takeaways from today’s episode.

• Real estate is awesome.  You can get the rights to something that will allow you to make money, without really taking on much risk, if any.
• There’s really almost no risk whatsoever when putting a house under contract (assuming you have the right contingencies in place).
• A quick note about education—yes, you need to get educated to do this business, but the majority of people are way overthinking it.  Don’t make it so difficult for yourself.  Flipping houses is easier than you might think.
• The people who struggle the most in this business are often those who know “everything” about working on houses, because they get in their own way.
• Your goal should be to fire yourself.  Your goal should be to do as little as possible to run your business.  The less you can do, the more successful you’re going to be—I’m serious!
• You can have money, or you can have excuses.  You can’t have both.  If you’re making excuses, that’s why you don’t have money.
• I’ve said it before.  You CAN do this business.  Get some education, and learn what you need to know to keep yourself safe, but then get out there and take action, action, action.

Here are a few more resources to check out about flipping a high volume of houses without seeing them.
