Step1
When you are looking for your first house to flip you should pick the ugliest house on the block.
Step2
When you rehab the home, don't go overboard. Make your house competitive with the rest of the market in that area. Going overboard will cause you to step up your closing price and your home will sit on the market longer. Doing this will cost you (holding costs) in the end so be careful.
Step3
Holding Costs: Cost of Insurance, Property Taxes and Utilities. This will cost around $3000 for every month the house is on the market so don't over price your home.
Step4
Start with a small house at first(cosmetic work only) and work your way up.
Cosmetic work includes painting, new carpet or hard wood, new lights and faucets, ect.
