    From Pitfalls To Payday

    The deal looked simple on paper: a compact ranch, clear comps, and a solid off-market price. Then came the real education. Jessica walks us through the flip that became a gauntlet—permits, a surprise roof, a jackhammered slab, busted drains, a GC who vanished at key moments, and a mechanic’s lien arriving right before closing. She didn’t just survive; she learned how to be a kinder, stronger CEO who leads with facts, protects cash flow, and finishes anyway. We pull apart the money stack she used—hard money plus a private lender—and how draw schedules can strangle a project when milestones stall. You’ll hear the honest math behind scope creep, especially when a second bathroom doesn’t match what the comps reward. Jessica shares how she sourced materials from auctions and clearance aisles, staged the house to sparkle, and priced for velocity. Multiple offers landed within 24 hours, and even closing-day chaos got resolved through steady negotiation and documented lien waivers. The story doesn’t end at the sale. After the emotional hangover, Jessica engineered a live-in flip with family capital, aligning a fair equity split with a rising Lafayette market. That move restored stability and opened a better path. Then she earned her real estate license, blending investor instincts with client service to create faster, steadier income while staying in the arena. If you care about resilient investing, contractor management, and turning setbacks into systems, this conversation delivers practical, hard-won tactics you can use on your next flip—or your first.

    From Teacher To Six-Figure Flips

    A pocket listing on Lookout Mountain, a seller who needed time, and a 5,700-square-foot question: can we really pull this off? We brought back Diana to unpack the full journey—how she and her husband stitched together hard money, private loans, and family funds to acquire, renovate, and sell a luxury flip that demanded both creativity and resilience. We start with the terms that opened the door: longer closings that honored the seller’s needs and gave them space to finish two ongoing projects. From there, the capital stack grew: a hard money loan for speed, private lenders for flexibility, and family support with clear boundaries and written agreements. Diana shares how raising capital snowballs when you communicate publicly, educate lenders about self-directed IRAs, and treat relationships like professional partnerships. Inside the renovation, the plan shifted from a tidy budget to a full-scale transformation. They removed a failing addition, finished a massive attic for functional living space, respected the home’s formal layout, and invested in an outdoor experience—fencing, native landscaping, and a tasteful privacy wall—that matched family buyers’ needs. Along the way, a designer relationship went sideways with inflated bids and thin deliverables. The fix: reclaim scope, put it in writing, and use an hourly stager for sharp, budget-aligned finish decisions. Selling brought its own lessons. An early $1.85M offer was declined in favor of a higher list, but time and carrying costs pressed hard. After addressing inspection hits—crawlspace humidity, cupped hardwoods—and swatting down a last-minute insurance objection with a fast quote, they closed at $1.75M cash and walked with roughly $200K. The honest reflection: they might have netted more by accepting that first offer, but the profit funded new ventures and sharpened their playbook. If you care about real numbers, real negotiation, and the unglamorous decisions that make or break a luxury flip, this conversation will meet you where you are. Subscribe, share with a friend who’s eyeing a big project, and leave a review with the one lesson you’ll use on your next deal. GOODIES 1. THE book on women flipping houses is here!

    How Hard Money Lenders Help First-Time Flippers Win

    What if the fastest path to your next profitable flip isn’t a bank at all—but an asset-based loan that closes in days, not weeks? We sit down with Susie from Rehab Wallet to demystify hard money lending for fix-and-flip investors and show why speed, structure, and clear math can beat sticker-rate anxiety. From no-credit underwriting to next-day draws, we walk through a funding model built by investors who understand real timelines, real budgets, and real-world hiccups. We start by separating myths from mechanics: how hard money compares to banks and private lenders, why higher annual rates can still be smarter on a six-month timeline, and how no prepayment penalties plus quick closings can translate to better offers and bigger spreads. Then we dig into the numbers that matter—ARV built on true comps, the 65/70% rules that anchor your max offer, and the down payment and LTV ranges that keep risk in check. Susie shares candid examples of deals saved by accurate comps—and deals stopped when “wishful ARVs” didn’t hold up. Execution is where profit lives. You’ll hear how to line up a general contractor before you write offers, build a scoped budget that won’t blow up mid-project, and use a photo-based draw app to pay crews the next business day so you don’t lose labor to other jobs. New investors learn how to present a fundable deal—team, comps, scope, and exit plan—and what it takes to “graduate” into better terms and multiple concurrent projects. We also cover practical negotiation leverage with 7–10 business day closings and why having a reliable hard money partner can win you deals when private money falls through. If you’re ready to move from curious to confident—running the math, writing tighter offers, and closing faster—this conversation gives you a clear playbook and a lender’s-eye view. Subscribe, share with a friend who’s ready to flip, and leave a review to tell us what deal analysis topic you want next. GOODIES 1. THE book on women flipping houses is here!

    From Flip to Flow: How Midterm Rentals Doubled Cash Flow and Cut Headaches

    What if your most profitable rentals aren’t beachfront bungalows or urban lofts—but clean, furnished homes in “ordinary” cities serving people who come to town to work? We sit down with Stacy, a self-managed investor in Cedar Rapids, to unpack how midterm rentals can out-earn long-term and out-calm short-term, all while serving a steady stream of traveling professionals, construction crews, insurers, and families between homes. Stacy shares the exact moves that scaled her portfolio: buying multiple properties in a focused sprint, renovating like a flip to kill maintenance headaches, and setting simple, tenant-friendly standards—fast Wi‑Fi, utilities included, monthly light cleanings, and durable furnishings sourced from estate sales. We dig into pricing MTRs at 1.5x–2x long-term rents, when to put TVs in bedrooms, and why thoughtful touches preserve linens and reduce turn costs. She also explains the less-talked-about pitfalls, like the insurance gap for under‑31‑day stays, and how to protect yourself without doubling your premiums. The engine behind consistent bookings is smart lead generation. Stacy registers with relocation firms, responds in minutes to Furnished Finder requests, markets to realtors for bridge housing, and taps union halls and Facebook groups to reach crews before they arrive. One lease was signed in 15 minutes with ID verification and digital signatures, a glimpse into how speed and simple systems win. We close with creative scaling—ADUs, basement conversions, multi-unit setups on a single mortgage—and a mindset shift: treat it like a business, tell everyone what you do, and solve problems with heart. If you’re ready to build calmer cash flow without chasing nightly reviews, this conversation is your blueprint for midterm rentals that work in real markets, not just vacation hotspots. Subscribe, share this with a friend who’s MTR-curious, and leave a review with your biggest question so we can tackle it next. GOODIES 1. THE book on women flipping houses is here!

    A Mother of Three Turns Her Passion for Homes into a Successful Flip Business

    What happens when a busy working mom of three decides to pursue her longtime passion for transforming homes? Ee's remarkable journey from complete beginner to successful house flipper proves that with determination, community support, and the right mindset, anyone can make their real estate dreams a reality. After joining the Flip Sisters community on what she jokingly called a potentially foolish April 1st, Ee faced months of rejected offers in her expensive Portland market. Rather than give up, she pivoted – expanding her search to Cincinnati, Ohio where she secured her first deal within just one month. Managing a flip remotely might sound intimidating, but Ee built a reliable team on the ground, creating a partnership based on trust and communication that allowed her to successfully navigate the entire process from thousands of miles away. Despite encountering unexpected challenges during the buyer's inspection, Ee maintained her composure and problem-solving approach. She purchased the property for $93,000, completed renovations just under her $57,000 budget, and sold it for $200,000 – walking away with a $20,000 profit on her very first flip. Even more fulfilling was knowing she'd provided a growing family with their perfect home, aligning perfectly with her deeper motivation for entering real estate. Ee's story resonates because it's honest about both the obstacles and triumphs of house flipping. She openly shares her moments of fear and self-doubt, revealing how self-talk, community support, and focusing on her "why" helped her develop the resilience needed to succeed. For anyone wondering if they have what it takes to flip houses while balancing other responsibilities, Ee's journey offers a resounding yes – you absolutely can.

    From Sidelines to Success: Kanani shares her experiences becoming a Private Money Lender

    Money shouldn't be what holds you back from flipping houses. That's the powerful message at the heart of this enlightening conversation between Blaire, a Flip Sisters coach, and Kanani, a successful private money lender within the community. When most people think of private lenders, they imagine wealthy investors with millions at their disposal. Kanani shatters this misconception, revealing how she transformed approximately $300,000 in retirement funds from previous employers into a self-directed IRA specifically for real estate investing. Without touching her family's day-to-day finances or disrupting her fulfilling career, she's funded six house flips across four different states, creating win-win scenarios for both herself and the flippers she partners with. The conversation takes us through Kanani's journey from retirement account consolidation to her first lending experience during the hectic holiday season. With refreshing honesty, she shares the initial uncertainties, documentation challenges, and relationship-building process that eventually led to multiple successful investments. Particularly illuminating is her explanation of cross-collateralization and how she secures her investments against physical property—a key advantage real estate offers over more speculative investments. What makes this episode especially valuable is the dual perspective it offers. For those hesitant about house flipping due to financial constraints, it showcases how private money lending makes deals possible. For those with retirement funds seeking better returns than traditional investments, it demonstrates how to put that "monopoly money" to work years before retirement age. The returns? Typically 10-14%, substantially outperforming standard retirement accounts. Perhaps most powerful is Kanani's candid reflection on investing in herself despite initial skepticism from her spouse. "I wanted to invest in ME," she explains, highlighting how her real estate education has benefited not just her financial future but created opportunities to teach her children about wealth-building while providing tangible benefits for extended family. Ready to explore how private money lending could transform your house flipping journey or investment strategy? This episode provides the roadmap and inspiration to take that crucial first step.

    From Hesitation to House Flip - Briana's $38,000 First Flip Journey

    Ever caught yourself driving past a run-down house thinking, "Someone should fix that up"? That's exactly where Brianna Sisk's journey began before she turned that fleeting thought into a $38,471 profit on her very first house flip. From X-ray technician to midwife-in-training to full-time house flipper and stay-at-home mom, Brianna's story captivates because it's rooted in a challenge we all face: getting out of our own way. For months, she hesitated to announce her new venture, trapped by what others might think in her small Tennessee town. The transformation came when she finally took the leap—within just three days of going public on social media, she had her first potential property. What makes this episode particularly valuable is the detailed breakdown of real numbers and practical solutions. Brianna shares exactly how she purchased a 112-year-old house for $70,000, navigated a full gut renovation despite busted pipes and contractor hiccups, and ultimately sold the property for $225,000 after just seven days on market. Her creative financing approach combining hard money lending with a home equity line of credit offers a blueprint for listeners facing similar funding challenges. Beyond the impressive profit margins lies the more profound message about trusting yourself and finding community. As Brianna emotionally reflects, "I could not have done this without you ladies... any doubts or issues I had, it was so easy to reach out and I had a whole team just right there giving me answers, giving me encouragement." Ready to stop being your own stumbling block? This conversation between Coach Sis and Brianna delivers both the tactical tools and the emotional permission slip you need to take that first step. Whether you're considering your first flip or your fiftieth, their candid discussion about scheduling subcontractors, managing timelines, and overcoming imposter syndrome will leave you inspired to turn those "someone should" thoughts into "I will" actions.
