Flipping Houses?
Valuation: This is most critical piece in evaluating a potential deal: What will the selling price be? Known as the “after repair value” or ARV, a good real estate agent will be able to do a comparative market analysis based on your rehab plans and provide your selling price. On house-flipping TV shows, an investor will buy a house, fix it up, then bring in a realtor who tells them how much to sell for. Real investors never do this.

If you don’t buy the property at the right price, you have little chance of making money.

Be aware. You may not get a loan because .... Lenders are researching public property data reports and reconciling the gross living area in the appraisal report. The lender is not readily approving loans if there are additions or finished areas completed without proper permits or Certificates of Occupancy/Compliance or legal "as is" per town officials. The appraisal report can reconcile some minor variances in gross living area, but not always when porches, garages or the area over the garage are converted into living area without permits and C.O. Ask me how you can make your additions legal. Call 581 384-1890.

When hiring an appraiser, what
types of questions should I ask?

The following questions would be appropriate:
• Are you licensed or certified in the state
in which you live?
• What professional designations do you
have and from what groups?
• How long have you been in practice?
• What level of experience do you have
in this particular market and with this
type of property?
• Are you familiar with property in
this neighborhood?
• What types of clients have you had
(homeowners, estates, lenders,
relocation companies)?
