Home flipping can be a great way to make a living -- or even just add an extra stream of income. Avoid these top mistakes to make the most out of your investment! 🛠

1️⃣ High Purchase Price - Some recommend the 70% rule. Never spend more than 70% of your projected after-repair value (minus repairs) when buying a property.

2️⃣ Miscalculating Repairs - Work with your agent to determine what projects will align with current buyer preferences & highest return on property value. We have local trusted pros on speed dial!

3️⃣ Overpricing the Home - When it comes time to sell, pricing the home to high can hurt you. More time on the market equals more costs to you. Work with your agent to price it right the first time!

Thinking of buying anytime soon? 🤔
Give yourself a head start by getting pre-qualified by a trusted local lender! A pre-qualification letter from a mortgage lender will let you know a good estimate of just how much home you can afford and lets sellers know you are a serious buyer if you choose to submit an offer.

Today's market is competitive for buyers and taking this extra step early in the buying process can give you the extra edge you need to make your offer stand out! 🔑 ✍🏼

📲 Connect with our team's preferred local lender, SeaTrust Mortgage and start your pre-qualification or approval today by clicking the link. ---> bit.ly/preferredlocallender
