In this episode of Where Should I Invest, host Sarah Larbi sits down with Ryan De Laurentis, an Ontario-based real-estate investor who’s completed more than 70 flips and hundreds of wholesale deals. Ryan shares his no-fluff approach to flipping — from managing renovations and sourcing materials to knowing when to pivot, drop your price, and protect your capital.

He dives deep into the lessons that shaped his rules for flipping and the mindset that keeps him profitable, even in tougher markets. You’ll hear how he learned to prioritize simplicity over perfection, why he believes “cheap sh*t sells” and how humility and discipline are often the most powerful tools in an investor’s toolkit.

Whether you’re new to flipping or ready to scale your business, this episode breaks down the numbers, systems, and strategies that turn good flips into great ones.
