Episode 2398

In today’s episode, we have a question from Steve, a realtor in San Francisco. With over a decade of experience in real estate, ranging from working as a realtor to a mortgage consultant, he’s no stranger to the intricacies of the property market. However, he seeks advice on how to find underpriced properties and cut down on renovation costs. Although real estate flipping can be profitable, I’ll say upfront that it's not an area where I’ve been terribly successful. Nevertheless, I’m happy to share some basic tips to help Steve get going, or perhaps look a bit more at the bigger picture.
"Greetings, I'm Steve from San Francisco. I've been in real estate for over a decade, starting as a realtor and now working as a mortgage consultant. My brother recommended your show to me, and I've learned a lot from the experiences of different stories. I've seen the lucrative side of property flipping and am considering using my skills to start a side hustle in this area. Can you offer some guidance on how to get started, particularly how to find underpriced properties and reduce renovation costs?"
