The news and your house flip.
It may seem like a wise idea to wait to buy or sell a home right now. Especially if you listen to all of the different news stories that are coming out day to day.
What you will make or loose is entirely up to you. Play it smart and plan ahead.
Make up an expense budget. How much do you have to spend on the purchase itself. Then how much do you have to fix it up.
When all of that is taken into account consider how long do you have to make the sale.
If you are looking for a short sale you are probably going to run into trouble. You have to be able to live in the mean time if the sale takes longer than you expected.
There are many things to consider when you decide that house flipping is what you want to do.
Don't jump into it blindly. Get opinions,do the research,set a budget and a time limit. Always think ahead and plan for the unexpected and you will do well.
