7 Figure Flipping

If you think money is the currency in real estate, you’re chasing the wrong thing. There’s a currency that decides whether you get deals, keep deals, and get referrals…  …and it’s not cash. Dr. Sheri Fluellen was staring at a flip with $17,000 in hidden costs and $2,500 earnest money on the line. Most people in her shoes would walk away… But Sheri didn't. Here’s why. You can’t build a real bu...

Most of us grew up with the same definition of “success.” Get a good job. Max out your 401k. And then retire at 65. That’s exactly what Lindsay Frederiksen did. She became a CPA, then climbed her way up the tech world, leading international sales teams, filling up three passports, and making the kind of money most people dream of. On paper, it was perfect. But it came at a cost.  She was miss...

I almost had to write a $70,000 check to get out of a bad deal in Alabama. All because I thought… “Just drop the price and it’ll sell.” Spoiler: It didn’t… Because it was never about the price. They fail because of 5 hidden killers that most investors panic and miss. Flips don’t fail by chance. They fail because of blind spots. And those blind spots are hard to see when you’re doing this alone. Th...

While most 26-year-olds are still figuring out their life…  Sam Hopkins is flipping 10–20 houses a month. He’s already on track to become one of the best flippers in the country. But he didn’t start that way. He was working two jobs at AT&T and GNC, making $11 an hour.  He scraped together $10K over a year and then bet it all on a vacant house he found driving for dollars. Bought it...

I’m not the smartest guy around. I wasn’t born into money. And I definitely don’t have some secret “rich friends” club funding my deals. But this year alone, I raised $1.8M in private money. In fact, one niche marketing campaign we ran did $700K in revenue from just $21K spend. That’s a 22:1 ROI. And I did all of this with just 2 skills. If you don’t control funding…  …you don’t control the d...

Most people think the secret to scaling is finding more deals. But Bret cracked the code another way… He and his dad quit their jobs and went full-time just 18 months ago.  And they made a promise to each other…No exit plan. Now they’re running a business with 3 employees and hitting ARVs up to $600K. And one of their secrets is this $1,000/day rule that predicts rehab delays. If you want to...

The water was 36°. Cold enough to make your skin burn. Cold enough that every nerve in your body screams, “Get out!” Last week, our leadership team didn’t just step in… we stayed in. And somewhere in the middle of it all, I realized something… That ice bath was teaching me the same thing that closes deals. Because flipping houses isn’t just about the numbers. It’s about doing the hard, uncomfortab...

Most investors blame price on losing the deal. But what if the seller never intended to say yes in the first place? Because distressed sellers don’t act logically. Sellers in distress behave a lot like people battling addiction. That’s why Dr. Sheri Fluellen (a psychologist + investor) uses a framework from addiction recovery… …to help sellers make clear, confident decisions. And if you’re wonderi...

Most people think fear shows up before the offer. But the real fear hits when the seller says “yes.” That’s exactly what happened to Beka Shea. Right before she made the offer, she froze. Not because it was a bad deal… But because she was afraid of what came after the yes. (This is someone who’s flipped 60+ houses and wholesaled 120+ deals.) If you’re wondering why Becca almost lost $1.2M deal…. C...

One investor added $200K to their bottom line…  …from just one conversation. And that was just one of the takeaways from our recent 7 Figure Flipping Mastermind event in Park City, Utah. We had 135+ of our highest-level members in the room. Working on their business, not in it. If you’ve ever wondered what actually happens behind closed doors at a 7FF mastermind event, check this out!  A...

You know what kills more real estate deals than anything else? Missed calls. What if I told you that you could handle every lead… …while still clocked into your W-2 job. Without letting another seller go to voicemail? Sharad Mehta, 7 Figure Altitude member and founder of RESimpli, just dropped one of the most game-changing updates I’ve seen in years! And honestly? It’s wild. (Former NFL athlete, D...

Can I admit something? There was a point where real estate felt too slow for me. I was buying rentals, stacking equity, and doing everything “right.” But the cashflow wasn’t replacing my income fast enough. So I started thinking, “Maybe I should just buy a business instead.” Fast cash. High returns. Skip the grind. That’s what the social media “gurus” were saying. So I did it. I built a title comp...

There’s a massive difference between doing deals and building a business . Most people start flipping so they can quit their job and have more freedom to control their time, spend it with family, and most importantly, spend it how they want to.  But they end up creating another full-time job. If that’s you, no judgment. I’ve been there. Working 12-hour days and missing time with my family. So...

You’ve probably seen the headlines: “Home flipping profits plummeting” “Mortgage rates spike again” “Homes taking longer to sell in 39 of 50 metros” Headlines like these will make you think the world is on fire. But let’s take a step back… Here’s my mid-year market update. (And it’s not what everyone is saying.) If the data tells us anything, it’s this…  2025 is a skills market. Amateur inves...

Sellers aren’t just getting one postcard or call… They’re usually getting hit by multiple investors. They’re shopping around. Googling your name. Checking your socials. When the market is flooded with investors, your brand is the only thing that separates you from everyone else.  Because if they don’t trust you… they won’t choose you. That’s why I wanted to share this incredible session with...

Most investors never build an actual business. They get stuck hustling for deals, struggling with contractors, and wondering why the “freedom” they signed up for feels more like a trap. In this week’s episode of The Bottom Line, I’m sharing the 5 growth stages every step must pass through to build a business that runs itself. Plus why most investors get stuck between $400K and $1M Like Sheri said…...

Every year, I record a podcast on July 4th. It’s a tradition. Because “freedom” means something different to me now than it did when I was flying helicopters over the Persian Gulf… And it probably means something different to you, too. This is the thing that drives everything I do. Freedom and money go hand-in-hand. Not because you need to be rich… But because it gives you options. This holiday is...

While I was mid-flight last week, Dr. Sheri Fluellen dropped a story most investors would never admit. Her worst. Flip. Ever. A $75K property on 8 acres.  It seemed like the perfect first deal. Instead, she got… No septic system. FIVE layers of shingles crushing the roof. A crumbling foundation $60K ARV drop A contractor who went MIA for months. 2.5 years later…she lost $20,000. But what happ...

One of Dr. Shannon’s clients recorded a simple 5-minute audio.  She played it every morning and every night for a week. What happened next? She brought in $250,000. Now, you might think she did it with a brand-new strategy no one talks about. Or by working harder than anyone else. Sure… strategy and hard work played a role. But what really moved the needle was rewiring her brain to believe sh...

If you’re flipping out of state, then LISTEN UP. Here’s a tactic you won’t find on YouTube (but you WILL need eventually): Before Dr. Sheri arrived to walk her new flip, her GC sent the whole crew on a lunch break. Then sprayed Febreze all over the house. Why? Because “he didn’t want her to smell anything bad…” …or “have to meet the guys.” 🤨 The reality is that he didn’t see her as the project ow...

Be honest… Put a finance workshop next to Fortnite or a TikTok trend. Which one do you think your kid is choosing? Exactly. That’s where Trinity started. Her parents signed her up for a program called Teenage Tycoon. Two Zooms a week. A book a month. Boring adult stuff. She wasn’t happy. Sat off-camera, arms crossed. Decided she was too smart for it. But then, one session flipped everything. A spe...

Reality check: Most investors give up after hearing “not interested.” Others back off because they don’t want to feel pushy. “I already called twice… I’ll just wait.” The seller ghosts. And just like that… another lead fades out. You tell yourself: They’ll reach out if they’re serious. And that’s the end of it…  But is it? Let me show you what one ‘dead lead’ turned into… and why you’ll never...

What if I told you the #1 reason most “investors” NEVER buy their first property... Has nothing to do with the market? It’s not a lack of leads. Not even a bad contractor (although you’ll hear how I could’ve prevented an $80,000 mistake with mine). If you’ve even done one deal , you’re statistically ahead of a lot of people. And AI could take you that much further. This might be my favorite episod...

Most people think doing the work themselves will save money on a flip. Tom Bell thought the same thing. Until a “quick” 6-week rehab turned into 5 months of nights, weekends, and missed deals. This week on The Bottom Line, I sat down with Tom, one of our 7 Figure Runway members, who came back to real estate after COVID wiped out his rental income. He’s not 25. He’s not looking to quit his job tomo...

Ever catch yourself thinking… “I’ll take action…once I know exactly what to do.” It sounds smart. Strategic. Responsible. Until you stall for months at a time waiting. This week I’m doing something different with my friend Dr. Sheri Fluellen. It’s called The Bottom Line. We’re sharing real stories. Actual numbers in our business. And answering one of your questions. Every week. And the first story...
