This book not only cracks the code but shares the proven path and system to have a systems based rehab business that makes consistent profits for ordinary everyday people.

No experience? No problem. You ll learn strategies to find the right properties, negotiate the right offer, identify the right licensed and insured contractor for the job, and get the property sold to a happy homeowner for a profit.

By learning and leveraging the principals of rehabbing and real estate, you ll start thinking like a business owner rather than a consumer.

Breaking into residential real estate provides an amazing opportunity for those with little, or no experience, and using other people s money. This book gives you the information, education, and systems every investor needs to start flipping and rehabbing houses without doing the work yourself, and without losing your shirt to contractors and bad investing decisions.
