Flip for Cash

Description

It’s a weeknight; you’re tired, and you sink into the couch with a glass of something cold and flick on the TV – it’s a home renovation show. Despite the contestants’ ups and downs, the tears and the heartaches, you notice that they always seem to come out in front in the end. But is it even possible to renovate that quickly and add that much value to a property? In this no-nonsense guide, real estate agent and property investor Geoff Grist explains his approach to ‘flipping’ – buying, renovating and selling apartments over a short period. With house prices soaring in Australian cities, apartments in urban lifestyle locations are the affordable compromise, and offer great opportunities for flipping. Geoff reveals: -how to assess whether flipping is right for you -how to choose the right property to flip, and -how to renovate for maximum profit. If you do it right – it’s absolutely possible to make money flipping property! Geoff Grist has spent the past decade selling residential real estate on Sydney’s lower north shore. He’s an experienced ‘flipper’, too, having purchased, renovated and sold units, newly finished apartments, off-the-plan property and family homes. He’s helped scores of vendor sell their properties for the highest possible price, and knows when you’re selling, the real estate agent you choose makes a huge difference to your final sales price. Geoff’s an entrepreneur who has sold two businesses over his varied career. One of his businesses, Audio Sound Centre, won the Telstra NSW Government Award for Best Small Business, and his best-selling book detailing his success strategies, 500 Award Winning Small Business Secrets, sold more than 30,000 copies.
