How do I invest in house flipping?

Quick Answer

Flipping requires capital, contractor relationships, and accurate ARV (after-repair value) estimates. Use the 70% rule — pay no more than 70% of ARV minus repair costs. Hard-money loans fund most flips at 8–12% with 1–3 points, expecting a 6–12 month exit.
