Part Time REI

Let’s take a look at The Estate House and see how it is coming along. It is pretty amazing what some new paint and carpet can do for a nice little house. The front of the house is coming along nicely. Cleaning up the yard and planting new bushes is really making the front of […]

  One of the ways some flippers make deals is by Wholesaling. Wholesaling real estate provides an opportunity for someone to build income with little capital or credit.

What if you could figure out how to make your money, make you money? […]

  Next in our Before and After Flipping House Series is “The Pool House.”  It is not often that rehabbers can say two words and all their fellow real estate investors know exactly what they are talking about. All we have to mention is “the pool” and everyone remembers the nightmare that Part-Time REI had […]
