Flipping Modules
Introduction
Welcome to Foundations Flipping Success. I’m excited for you to get started on your real estate investing journey.
There is a lot of information included in this course
Please don’t get overwhelmed. The information is here for a reason, but take your time learning and growing into the real estate flipping world.
You will have access to the information and be able to refer back to it at any time.
You can also join our private Facebook Group at Foundations Real Estate Academy. Here you will be able to ask questions, share information, get referrals and share your experiences with others who are starting out as well. There are also industry professionals in this group with years of experience who will help you along the way.
I’m Laurie Knisely, the creator of this course. I’ve been rehabbing houses and small multi-family residences for over 32 years. I have completed hundreds of projects for retail sale as well as for rentals for both myself and turn-key rental buyers.
Most of these deals were done with no money out of my pocket, and I’ll show you how to do that, too.
This course is going to be different from others. I’ll share experiences and lessons based on real-world situations. Not only things to look out for, but tips to make things easier you may not think of.
In the contracts and forms section you will find all the forms you need, like material lists, a form to schedule your rehab tasks, a general contract to use with contractors, a credibility kit example for finding private lenders and what to do if it’s your first deal. Most importantly, there is an easy-to-use, comprehensive deal calculation worksheet to be sure your deal really is a deal.
I’m looking forward to seeing your first deal’s before and after pictures.
The thing I love most about flipping is seeing the changes made to a property and the sense of pride in knowing I made that happen.
If you feel there is something missing, or have questions you need answered, PLEASE, always reach out to us or ask in the Facebook group. I want you to use this course, I want you to succeed, this is very important to me and I’m always here for your success!
Let’s get started!
How this course is designed to work.
Much hard work has gone into this course to include all the information needed so that you can complete a deal. Your success is valuable and important.
I don’t want this to be just another course “sitting on the shelf” of other courses. There’s little fluff. The information is necessary to do deals and that is what I want for you, to DO deals.
It is best to read through the entire course to get a general feel for the information contained. There is a lot of detail and a lot of items that may not seem immediately relevant, but when the time comes, you’ll be thankful they’re here.
Module 2.
The first action that will be necessary is to build your team. A comprehensive list is included. Many may not be important immediately, while some you will need to begin.
Do the homework, you will need people along the way.
Module 3.
Second, you will need resources to help you plan, implement and complete transactions. As with the team members, you may not need all the resources to begin, but in time, you may find they have value along the way.
Do the homework, you will need resources along the way.
Module 4.
The core of the course. It may seem overwhelming, but take your time. Make notes, follow the processes and become familiar with the overall information. Each step, as simple as it may seem, has a reason. The harder steps will become easier as you gain experience.
Module 5.
There are many books about the subject and great information about real estate in general. Learning is a continual process and there is an abundance of information to increase your education. This is a compilation of books that have been helpful to others and would be good to assist you in your journey.
Module 6.
This section is full of contracts and forms both for you to do business and for your protection. Review them, revise them if needed, but use them. Consult your team business attorney to review them with you. It is worth the time and money to conduct your business properly.
