Today we are visited by Marty Boardman.  Marty is a house flipper from Phoenix, Arizona, who flips houses in Milwaukee.  Yes, you read that correctly.  Even though Marty lives in Phoenix he has an active house flipping business with a farm area 2,000 miles from where he lives!

In today's Part 1 of the interview, we discuss how Marty got started with House Flipping (which actually follows a lot of parallels with my own journey) and he shares why he changed his farm area to another state and how he works his deal acquisitions and financing from such a long distance.
